Is pomfret a deep-sea fish? Can it be farmed artificially?

There are many kinds of pomfret, some belong to deep-sea fish, some do not belong to deep-sea fish, and even do not belong to marine fish. As far as species are concerned, swordfish live in the deep sea and belong to deep-sea fish. While silver pomfret, China pomfret and other species will live in shallow waters and belong to offshore fish. In addition, there are species living in fresh water, such as red pomfret. They are neither deep-sea fish nor offshore fish, but freshwater fish. 1. Is pomfret a deep-sea fish? Pomfret is a kind of edible fish, and pomfret contains many varieties. Among them, most species of pomfret live in the ocean and belong to marine fish. But the specific water depth of different species of pomfret is different. Some of them are distributed in the offshore, such as "silver pomfret", which belongs to the middle and lower layers of offshore fish, and the specific distribution depth is between 5- 1 10 meters, and does not belong to deep-sea fish. In addition, some species will be distributed in deeper waters, such as "swordfish", which are distributed in deeper waters of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. There are also some species, such as "golden pomfret", which will swim from the open sea to the offshore in spring and summer, and will swim deeper in the open sea when winter comes. Therefore, whether pomfret is a deep-sea fish depends on the specific species.

In addition, some species of pomfret do not live in the ocean, such as "red pomfret", which can live in fresh water, be raised artificially or be used as ornamental fish. They are not marine fish themselves, let alone deep-sea fish.

Second, can pomfret be farmed artificially? As mentioned above, there are many different species of pomfret, most of which live in the ocean. Generally, these fish can't be raised artificially, because they have adapted to the seawater environment, can't adapt to the artificially raised environment in a short time, and sometimes even die because they can't adapt to the environment. But some species are different, such as the "red pomfret" introduced above. They are also called "freshwater pomfrets" and can live alone in fresh water. It can be raised artificially or used as an ornamental fish.
