Anchovies and eels are two different kinds of fish, and they appear in traditional Chinese culture and myths and legends. These two fishes do not exist biologically; they are more literary legends and symbolic symbols. The following is a detailed introduction to the differences between these two types of fish:
Eel:
Kun and eel are most likely a combination of two different fish. Among them, "Kun" is a legendary creature in ancient Chinese mythology. It is said to resemble an extremely huge fish and is also described as a supernatural fish. Its image often appears in ancient Chinese documents and mythological stories. Kun is considered a very large, powerful and mysterious being. It has been given symbolic meaning in many literary works, representing great power and change.
eel:
The eel is a real fish, belonging to the order Anguilla, which mainly lives in fresh water or sea water. They usually have elongated bodies, are rich in oil, and are a popular food fish. In Japan and other Asian countries, eel is a common ingredient used in various dishes, such as Japanese kabayaki eel rice.
Generally speaking, kelp and eel are two completely different concepts. Kun is a supernatural being in mythology, often symbolizing magnificent power and mystery. The eel is a real fish, commonly found in freshwater and seawater environments, and is an important food fish.
