About

Related to carp, but despite this, little is known on their impact on native species, particularly in relation to competition for food, habitat and resources. Few negative effects have been recorded, however, this may be due to a lack of research. One known impact of the fish is the transmission of disease.

eDNA Test

This species eDNA probe will amplify both goldfish and European carp. Can be paired with the European carp specific probe to determine presence of both species.
