The silver carp falls under the classification of organism, as it is a species of fish typically found in freshwater rivers and lakes. This classification pertains to the biological kingdom of living organisms.

The scientific name for goldfish is Carassius auratus and it is from the classification Cyprinidae. The characteristics of the common goldfish are originally an olive-brown colouration but more often black, gold, bronze, orange, red, pink, and white or combinations of these colors are found. Goldfish resemble common carp but lack barbels on upper jaw. Goldfish are omnivorous and will eat a wide range of vegetation and insects. Dried flake or pellet foods provide a good basic diet, but Goldfish will appreciate supplements of fresh vegetables and protein rich foods such as bloodworm. Live food, when available, will be eagerly accepted.
A non-native invasive species refers to any species that originates abroad but is introduced to a new territory, resulting in ecological, environmental and/or economic destruction. Often, the introduction of the invasive species is the result of human travel or transport which allows a species to "hitch a ride" to new areas they would not have otherwise visited. A perfect example in the US is the Zebra Mussel, a small mussel native to Eurasia. However, it is believed that the Zebra Mussel migrated to the United States in the ballast water of ships (which subsequently released them into US waterways). Since their introduction in the late 1980's, the Zebra Mussel has been responsible for clogging power plant water intake systems, blocking pipelines, changing water quality and threatening the existence of several species of native clams and mussels. (In their defense, they are also very effective at filtering pollutants out of the water which, in some areas, has increased the populations of native fish species.)
Silver carp was created in 1845.
Developed from the common carp, Cyprinus Carpio. An ornamental fish that will revert to wild carp state after a few generations in the wild.
The group of fish collectively referred to as "Asian carp" are actually made up of four distinct species: the Bighead Carp, the Black Carp, the Grass Carp and the Silver Carp. According to the US Department of Agriculture, the Grass Carp was the first to reach American waterways in 1963. This was followed by the introduction of the Black Carp in the early 1970's, the Bighead Carp in 1972 and finally the Silver Carp in 1973.

The carp we commonly refer to when using that name are the common carp, the grass carp, the bighead carp, the silver carp and the Crucian carp. Certainly there are other fish is this very large family. You may recognize koi as carp, and there are many other members of this group of fish. A full list of them would number in three digits.
