Description:
The Common Carp or European Carp (Cyprinus carpio) is a widespread freshwater fish distantly related to the common goldfish, which it is capable of interbreeding with. It gives its name to the carp family Cyprinidae. Originating in Europe and Asia, the fish has been introduced into environments worldwide. It can grow to a maximum length of 4 feet (1.2 meters), a maximum weight of 82.2 lb (37.3 kg), and an oldest recorded age of 47 years. The wild, non-domesticated, forms tend to be much less stocky at around 20% - 33% the maximum size.
