Bream is a grayish brown fish belonging to the carp family. It can live up to 15 years. Bream is a typical fish for cloudy nutrient-rich water which often contains lots of algae. It looks for food by snuffling in the muddy bottom with its snout. This makes the water cloudy. In such 'breamy' water, its enemy the pike is unable to hunt well.
