The origin of spring fish was originally renamed from longevity fish, which was named after treating diseases and recuperating in ancient times. Slowly, people turned it into a secret recipe that pays attention to nourishing and keeping in good health. After this recipe was introduced into Mingshan Oasis, Mingshan Oasis chose all kinds of freshwater fish that grew in the lake spring, so the longevity fish was renamed Mingshan Oasis spring water fish.

The accumulated water in the famous mountain oasis lake is used to control the mountain spring water. The water is clear and sweet. The fish in the lake are never fed with commercial feed, but only with wild alfalfa. Alfalfa contains a lot of high protein. After eating, the fish is tender and very nutritious, which is incomparable to ordinary freshwater fish. Coupled with the secret recipe of the ancient medicinal diet "Longevity Fish", it is fragrant and pleasant after eating. People who eat it often can improve their intelligence and health, and can cure the deficiency in injury.
