Extended data:

There are three reasons for the origin of the name lucky fish:

1, two long beards: The most striking thing about a warship is the two long beards under its abdomen, which are scientifically called silk fins, reminiscent of the two long beards under the cheeks of the god of wealth. When the warship cruises, the two silk fins are elegant and smart, giving people a unique feeling, as if the essence of water follows the swing of the silk fins, which naturally brings wealth. There are also some warships with four silk fins under their bellies, which are more beautiful and generous.

2, thrive: anyone who has raised a warship knows that its appetite is not generally large, it can eat and pull, and it grows fast. Many fish friends have a special sense of accomplishment in raising warships. They can cultivate a small fish into a "rich man" in a short time, and their hearts are very beautiful. Just like the totem worship of ancient people, people have given this thriving fish more symbols, including the meaning of "auspiciousness".

3. Unusual origin: Warships originated in Southeast Asia, belonging to the Slippery Family. Other species in this family are "small heads" and will not grow too big. Only warships are giants in this family. In local farms, this kind of fish is the most popular, because it will bring huge economic benefits and is a veritable wealth, so local fishermen call it "God of Wealth Fish".
