What kind of fish is a mola fish?

Sunfish, freshwater fish, native to fresh water in the southern United States and northern Mexico, Central and South America. Adult fish are 24-40 cm long.

Most molas have prominent colors, and the most striking species among the beautiful molas is this one called Chang 'e. Its dazzling metallic blue fish is covered with orange stripes, and there are a pair of patterns like ears at the back end of its dazzling beautiful eyes, which is their obvious sign.

There are about 30 species in all, which belong to fish that spawn many times. The staple food is zooplankton and aquatic insects, but also aquatic plants, small miscellaneous fish and small mollusks.

Distribution range:

Mola is native to North America and distributed in rivers and lakes from Ontario, southern Quebec, Canada to the Great Lakes system in the United States, as well as in many southern States and northern Mexico. The individual is small, generally 50- 100g/ tail, and the big one is about 2kg/ tail.

Morphologically, the blue gill sunfish is somewhat similar to Nile tilapia. The most striking appearance feature is that there is a black auricular soft membrane on the back edge of gill cover, which is the common feature of all sunfish, but the "eardrum" of different species is different in color and shape.
