Како укусно солити толстолобик код куће, најбољи рецепти

Catching a silver carp in our time is not a problem, since it is bred artificially, in numerous paid reservoirs.

What is this fish?

The silver carp is a fairly large representative of the cyprinid fish species, which leads a schooling lifestyle and prefers freshwater reservoirs. It is also called the silver carp, and it got its name due to the fact that its forehead shape is somewhat wider than that of other carp representatives. Moreover, his eyes are somewhat lower, so it seems that his forehead is quite massive.

It can grow up to 1 meter in length, or even more, while gaining 50 kg in weight, despite the fact that the average weight of a silver carp is within 30 kg.

This species of cyprinids is distinguished by the presence of the so-called “sieve”, which is formed by merging the gill rakers with transverse bridges. Through this “sieve” the silver carp passes phytoplankton.

In our time, there are three subspecies of silver carp, which include:

• Бео. The appearance of this silver carp is characterized by a predominance of silver and sometimes white shades. His fins are greyish. They are distinguished by very tasty and moderately fatty meat.
• Motley. This subspecies has a larger head and darker coloration. The head of this species occupies 50% of the entire body. With age, the silver carp darkens, and dark spots appear in the color. The meat of the bighead carp is much more palatable than the meat of the white carp. This is due to the fact that it mainly feeds on phytoplankton.
• Хибрид. These are the best aspects of the quality of white and bighead carp. Its coloration is more reminiscent of a white carp, and the speed of its development is more suitable for a motley relative.

Salted fish is recommended for use by those categories of people who suffer from low stomach acidity, as well as low blood pressure.
