Guillow fish has only one main spine, no fine spines, so the spines are not too many. And it is a common edible fish because of its flavor and high nutritional value. Its scientific name is gui fish, also known as Mandarin fish.

Guillow fish has few thorns and is very hard, plus the thorns have poisonous gland tissues on them, so you must wear gloves when you kill the fish to avoid being stabbed, because the wound will be swollen and painful and numb after being stabbed, and you need to remove the thorns of the guillow fish when you make dishes such as squirrel guillow fish.

100 grams of fresh guppy contains 19.9 grams of protein, in addition to fat, cholesterol, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin E, niacin, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, selenium, iron, zinc, copper, and other nutrients; per 100 grams of fresh perch contains 18.6 grams of protein, in addition to fat, cholesterol, vitamin A, vitamin B1 vitamin B2, Vitamin E, niacin, niacin, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, iron, selenium and other nutrients. The difference between the two in terms of nutrients is not great, if it is to supplement protein, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, choose which one is okay.
