The MILKFISH

The bandeng (Latin: Chanos chanos or English: milkfish) was a fish that was important food in South-East Asia. This fish was the only species that still was in the family Chanidae (approximately seven extinct species in five genera of the addition it was reported had been available). They lived in the Hindia Ocean and crossed him until the Pacific Ocean, they tended to gather around the coast and the islands with coral. The young fish and just hatched lived in sea for 2 - 3 weeks, then moved to the mangrove swamp, the salty area, and occasionally lakes. The bandeng just returned to sea if being mature and could breed. This young fish was gathered from rivers (was mentioned nener) and was bred in fishponds.
