Comments:
Introduced in the 1900s. The common and Chinese carps were introduced during the early history of Singapore. They formed the basis for an important aquaculture after 1945 but rising land values have now rendered this activity uneconomic and it has declined considerably in recent years. Also Ref. 13364 and 38466.
