Introduction: The 6 species of small fish that are only found in the stream are rare now because of their high requirements for water quality. How many species do you remember?
A few days ago I shared with you several common small river fish in rivers in the past, which evoked many childhood memories from netizens.
Many netizens also pointed out that there are not only small river fish, but also many small fish in the streams on the mountains in the countryside. They have high requirements for water quality and are very rare today.
So today Xiaomao will talk to you about the small fish that are only found in the stream. It was common and often eaten in the past, but now it is hard to find a fish.
The first type is very familiar to many people, it is the stream grouper. Just by listening to the name of this fish, you know that its growth environment is very special and you love to move in the stream.

期 grouper is also called bluestone grouper among the people, because this kind of fish will have stripes like zebra . This fish doesn't grow big and looks very beautiful, but it has high requirements for the water quality of the growth environment.
However, twenty or thirty years ago, this kind of fish could be seen in many streams in rural areas, especially in spring and summer, which is the peak season for fishing for stream groupers. Many people will also go fishing in the stream with flashlights at night.
Although the size of the stream grouper is not big, only one or two or two pieces of large ones, its meat is very delicious. At the same time, one thing to note is that the eggs of the fish, such as the grouper, are poisonous. If you eat them, you must remove the internal organs and clean them.
Before, I saw some video bloggers selling groupers on the Internet, and the price was as high as 200 yuan per catty. The price of one is ten yuan, which is really incredible.
The second type is red-tailed loach . This is a rare loach . It looks very similar to loach, but it has beautiful patterns on its body. However, compared with loaches, the red-tailed secondary loach is smaller in size and has a more special distribution environment.
They are mainly in the rock caves and rock cracks of some mountain streams. They are small fish at the bottom, especially in rocky backwater bays, because these environments are more conducive to their predation.
Like in the past, children went to streams to catch fish, and occasionally caught a few of these fish. Because it looks good, children also like to raise it as ornamental fish .
It is like a loach and will not die for a long time after leaving the water. But it is very difficult to see now, otherwise it would be really good to catch a few fish as ornamental fish.
The third type is the seven-star fish. In other places, it is mostly called "Scale Star Fish, Seven Star Fish, and Star Spotfish, while in Xiaomao's hometown, it is usually called "Zhanggong Fish".
Some people don’t recognize it and mistakenly regard it as black fish . Seven-star fish is much more precious than black fish, and its price on the market is two or three times more expensive than black fish.
40 years ago, the seven-star fish was not very popular. It may be because there were many of these fish at that time, but after the mid-1980s, its price began to soar, and many people would catch large quantities for profit, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of this fish. Now it is rare in some places.
Seven Star Fish looks like black fish, but it is more delicious than it. It can be fried, steamed, and fried. The most common one is to make soup. People believe that eating it is very nourishing. For people who have just recovered from serious illness or have undergone surgery, eating Seven Star Fish soup can help heal the wound.
The fourth type: Shatang kelp , a very small and cute fish. It is mostly called meat cone, Tugou, Wooden Grandma, Tigerhead Shark kelp , Tigerhead, Tupo fish, Pork kelp kelp , Shawu kelp kelp , etc.
This fish looks stupid and loves to move at the bottom of the stream, but it is a carnivorous fish, so it reacts quickly and swims quickly once someone approaches.
Children in the past liked to fish in streams, intercept the upstream water, and then clean up the water from the puddle, so that they can fish in the troubled water.
Because compared with small fish such as Chinese Douyu , 黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄黄� But now this kind of fish is extremely rare in Xiaomao's hometown.
It is worth mentioning that the "Shatang Bird" weighing several kilograms on the market is actually an invasive fish, commonly known as " bamboo shoot shell fish ".
The fifth type is the new favorite of anglers - military fish . In the past, most people loved fishing because they had poor living conditions and could eat meat when fishing. At that time, among many streams, there was a fish that looked very much like grass carp . It was a military fish, scientifically called " barbs horn ".
Military fish is very similar to grass carp, but it is more dangerous than grass carp because there is a barb on its back, which cannot be seen without careful attention. Moreover, this fish is very ferocious. It is a carnivorous fish. It can usually grow to about one pound, and some large ones can reach two or three pounds per.
Military fish is a brave fish, it is simply the "adventure king" in the fish world, because it likes to live in the rapids of water, especially in the streams with many stones at the bottom of the water, and it can often be seen.
But in recent years, due to electric fish, medicinal fish, and overfishing, wild military fish are very rare, and some places have even disappeared.
The last type is estimated to be unknown to many people because it is a very niche fish - red-scaled fish. People who don’t know often regard it as a small meal fish, because it is slender and small in size, and it is usually difficult to exceed 10CM. It really looks like a small meal fish.
Red scale fish is a specialty of Mount Tai in Shandong. In the past, this fish was found in many local streams, but later due to overfishing and its slow growth, it usually takes 10CM to grow in three years, so the number is scarce. Today, wild red-scaled fish have become a protected animal, but fortunately it has been artificially cultivated.
What is even more surprising is that this kind of fish is often mistaken for a small fish, but its price is not low. It was once sold for one thousand yuan per person on the market.
later realized artificial breeding. Although the price dropped, it still costs five or six hundred yuan per kilogram. This price is hundreds of times more expensive than many common fish on the market. Even so, there are still many people who love to eat it, and it may also be related to the fact that rare things are precious.
Speaking of fish in streams, of course, it is not just the above 6 species. These fish were used to be common and eaten in rural areas, but later they became rare due to various reasons.
I believe that most people only know a few of the above 6 species of fish. Those who know more than 5 species must be quite old, and those who have eaten all of them are probably at the level of a great god. Then how many more do you know? Everyone is welcome to leave a message to discuss!
