Carp and salmon differ significantly in their habitat and physical characteristics. Carp are Freshwater Fish, often found in lakes and rivers, and have a robust, scaled body, while salmon are primarily Saltwater Fish that migrate to freshwater to spawn and possess a streamlined body with a more pronounced coloration. Additionally, carp are known for their adaptability and can thrive in various environments, whereas salmon have specific spawning requirements and life cycles. Nutritionally, salmon are generally considered healthier due to their higher omega-3 fatty acid content.
