Description
The Common Bream is a large, deep-bodied freshwater fish native to Europe and Western Asia. While not typically kept in home aquariums due to their size and schooling nature, they are important food fish and sport fish. The image, however, displays dried specimens of this species, likely prepared for consumption.
