Anchovies are anchovies, live mainly in saltwater, some species are distributed in fresh water and brackish estuaries. The fish are less than 15 cm long, swim in schools, and eat organisms and phytoplankton. This type can be made into fish sauce, dried, and processed into many dishes such as braised, fried, or cooked in soup with pineapple or sorrel leaves... so the selling price is quite high.
