Prussian Carp in a 200 liters freshwatertank, with european freshwater fish.

The population of this 200 liter (53 gallon) tank:
The sperm comes … The sperm comes from other male carps, but it only starts the cleavage of cells. It does not penetrate the eggs, so there’s just the dna of the mother. But this applies just for a female prussian carp and other (non-prussian) male carps. The reproduce of a male prussian carp and a female prussian carp is like all other fish.
I got to read up on … I got to read up on gynogenesis. You are saying the Prussian carp can reproduce with other carp types but the sperm does not come from that male?
So the juvenile … So the juvenile prussian carps are genetically identic and clones of their mother (but of course there also exists a “real” reproduce with male prussian carps; the gynogenesis is just an alternative). That’s why some populations in europe (they’re not endemic) only consist of female prussian carps (and also have been started by just one female prussian carp).
The size is ~12cm ( … The size is ~12cm (I’m not exactly sure, the video was taken some month before and the fish is now living in my pond).
But I don’t think it’s a male. Prussian carps are able to reproduce from unfertilizted eggs, what is called gynogenesis.
So a female prussian carp can start to reproduce with other (male) fish of the carp family/cyprinids, but the eggs don’t get fertilized by them.
