Prussian Carp
Carassius gibelio
Prussian carp inhabit ponds, lakes, slow rivers, and other calm freshwater habitats. They forage along the bottom for aquatic plants, algae, detritus, insect larvae, and small crustaceans. Adults tolerate murky, low-oxygen water better than many other fish. This adaptable carp can reproduce successfully even where few or no males are present.
