Pomfret is a kind of edible fish, pomfret contains many varieties. Among them, most of the pomfret species live in the ocean and belong to marine fish. However, the specific water depth of different species of pomfret is different. Some of them are distributed offshore, such as "silver pomfret", which belongs to the middle and lower layers of offshore fish, and the specific distribution depth is between 5-110 meters, so they do not belong to deep-sea fish. In addition, some species are distributed in deeper waters, such as "knife pomfret", which is distributed in deeper waters of the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. There are also some species, such as "golden pomfret", which swim from the open sea to the offshore in spring and summer, and to deeper places in the open sea when winter comes. Therefore, whether pomfret is a deep-sea fish depends on the specific species.
In addition, there are pomfret species that do not live in the ocean themselves, such as "red pomfret", which can live in fresh water, can be raised artificially, and can also be used as ornamental fish species. They themselves do not belong to marine fish, let alone deep-sea fish.
As mentioned above, there are many different species of pomfret, most of which live in the ocean. This part of the fish is generally not artificial breeding, because they have adapted to the marine environment, can not adapt to the artificial breeding environment in a short time, and sometimes even die because they can not adapt to the environment. But some varieties are different, the "red pomfret" introduced above is the case. They are also called "freshwater pompanos" and can live in fresh water themselves. They can be raised artificially and can be used as ornamental fish.
