Fish
Pike
The pike (Esox lucius) is a fish from the family Esocidae. It has a cylindrical body and is a large predator. Its cylindrical body ends with a characteristic head, wide and flattened, resembling a duck's beak. Its jaw is equipped with about 700 teeth, tilted inwards. Eyes, located on the top of the head, provide it with a wide field of vision. The dorsal fin, located on the top of the rear part of the body, serves it for a powerful thrust when it decides to attack prey! Pores on the head, located on both lower jaws connected to the lateral line, allow the pike to sense even the slightest vibration from a great distance. The colors of its body are suitable for perfect camouflage: the back, dark green fading into black, streaked with lighter stripes, while the sides are greenish, and the belly is white.

Common carp
There is much variation among the European whitefish forms, but in general they have a tapered body, a slightly protruding upper jaw and a fleshy dorsal fin that is typical of the salmon family. The snout is short and tapered, a fact that distinguishes this species from the two other North European Coregonus species, vendace (Coregonus albula) and the introduced peled (Coregonus peled). The former has a protuberant lower jaw while in the latter, the jaws are equal in length. The back is bluish green or brownish, the flanks silvery and the belly white. The fins are dark grey. This fish seldom grows more than 55 cm (22 in) long or exceeds 2 kg (4.4 lb) in weight.

Big-scaled carp
Mirror carp, regionally known as Israeli carp, are a type of domesticated fish commonly found in Europe but widely introduced or cultivated elsewhere. They are a variety of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) developed through selective breeding. The name "mirror carp" originates from their scales' resemblance to mirrors. They can grow in excess of 60 lb (27 kg). Common carp have an even, regular scale pattern, whereas mirrors have irregular, patchy scales that have little to no overlap, making many fish unique and identifiable by sight.
