The introduced common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is now widespread through much of inland New South Wales. Carp are considered a major pest and contributor to the environmental degradation of many inland waterways and reduction of native fish populations. Consequently, there has been considerable ongoing research, both nationally and within NSW, into ways of controlling carp [...]
This fact sheet is about Carp in Victoria. It covers the history of carp in Australia, evidence of carp as a pest species, programs designed to control carp, and future management recommendations.
The Murray-Darling Basin Commission is committed to reducing the impact of carp in the Murray-Darling Basin Waterways. The control of carp populations in the Basin’s rivers will be acheived through a range of integrated pest control measures. One technology that offers promise in the long term, and which could be used with other control measures [...]
Carp were first discovered in Tasmania in the states North-West in 1975 and again in 1980. These populations were eradicated using the fish poison rotenone. Carp were again discovered in Tasmania in early 1995 this time in the popular recreational trout waters of lakes Crescent and Sorell. Following the discovery of this latest infestation, the [...]

Towards the end of the 1990s, there was no doubt that the majority of public opinion, and a mounting degree of scientific evidence, suggested that carp-control should be a primary concern for all agencies managing the fresh waters of southern Australia. There is now a realisation that when carp dominate a waterway, there are negative [...]
Carp are extremely adaptable animals and can thrive in environments that would kill other freshwater fish. It is thought it will be impossible to totally eradicate the existing population and so, the most realistic approach is to control carp numbers. Scientists are investigating this ‘daughterless technology’ which aims to control carp numbers through creating a [...]
The purpose of this strategy is to provide direction and focus for a uniform approach to exotic pest fish management. It has close links and shared goals with other State and national strategies to ensure an integrated approach to exotic pest fish management across Australia.
Carp Cyprinus carpio L. is only one of twenty freshwater fish introduced to Australia which are now naturalised in our river and lake systems. Carp have been in Australia for over a century, and are now present in every State except the Northern Territory. Distribution of carp continues to expand at an alarming rate. This [...]
