The common nase (Chondrostoma nasus) is a European potamodromous cyprinid fish.

They are commonly known as nases, though this term is also used locally to denote particular species, most frequently the Common Nase (C. nasus).

The diversity of fish is significant: carp, carassius, rudd, carp bream, European perch, common nase and barbus.

Chondrostoma nasus (Common Nase, Sneep)

The Banska River is inhabited by a large number of fish species, including the Mullet, Danube Bleak, the Carassius and the Common Nase.

Some fish, such as the grass carp, are specialized in eating vegetation; others, such as the common nase, eat algae from hard surfaces, while others, such as the black carp, specialize in snails, and some, such as the silver carp, are specialized filter feeders.
