Conclusion
Karpov family is quite numerous. The coloring of fish is quite primitive and usually grayish, although there are copies with yellowish. However, this greatly depends on what layer of water lives. If this is a receiver, the color will be olive, and if the upper layers will be silver. Of course, there are albinos that arose as a result of mutations and chromists with a very bright color. Food consists mainly of plankton or small vertebrates, although many can eat algae and insects that accidentally hit the water.
