Basic Introduction of Wan'an Glass Red Carp

Wan'an Glass Red Carp was discovered by the Fisheries Brigade of Mayuan Reclamation Farm in the county in 1963 from fish fry in the Yangtze River. After more than ten years of hybrid breeding and targeted cultivation, it was developed. The fish is named "Wan'an Glass Red Carp" because its whole body is transparent (young fish can have internal organs) and its body color is bright red. In 1984, experts and professors from more than 30 aquatic units across the country organized by the National Fisheries Administration confirmed it as a new freshwater fish product in China, and won the High Quality Aquatic Product Award at the national aquatic product exhibition and sales in the same year

In addition to its beautiful appearance and ornamental value, Wan'an Glass Red Carp also has the characteristics of tender meat, delicious taste, and rich nutrition. According to measurements, its protein and fat content are higher than that of ordinary carp, making it a popular delicacy for people's banquets

As of 1986, except for the northwest region, other provinces and cities in China have introduced and raised this fish, and achieved good economic benefits.
