Goldfish
- Goldfish was one of the earliest fish to be domesticated and a relatively small member of the Carp family.
- Releasing it into the wild can lead to giant sizes, making them invasive and harmful to native marine life, damaging fragile ecosystems.
- It can eat almost anything and everything, including algae, aquatic plants, eggs, and invertebrates.
- They can tolerate a wide range of water temperatures, reach sexual maturity quickly, and reproduce several times in one season.
- Feral goldfish are also destructive, as they help spawn harmful algal blooms by consuming the algae and expelling nutrients that promote its growth.
