Describe A Tilapia Fish
Tilapia are therefore described as a shaped like sunfish or crappie which can be easily identified by the obvious lateral line characteristic of the Chiclid family of fishes. They are compressed laterally with that deep bodies and have long dorsal fins which enables them to swim fast.
Tilapias literally comprises of three genera: Tilapia, Sarotherodon, and Oreochromis. These three genera are being placed together in the tilapiine cichlid tribe. Tilapias therefore inhabit a variety of fresh and brackish water( less common) habitats from shallow streams and ponds through to rivers, lakes, and estuaries etc.
Where Do They Live?
Most Tilapia are freshwater fish inhabiting or dwelling in shallow streams, ponds, rivers, and lakes, and are less commonly found living in brackish water.
Is There Any Difference Between Scale Fish And Fish Without Scale?
Fish Scale | Scaleless Fish |
---|---|
Scales protect fish, much like a suit of an armor, All fish have a slimy covering of mucus. This substance therefore allows these fishes to swim through the water with very little drag or struggle and also makes it difficult for other organism in the water to get attracted to the fish. | Fish without scales are liken to be prey to other aquatic animals because there is no huck for protection, alternatives to the protection scales can be tough leathery skin or bony plates. |
