Toxicology of aquarium fish

The Veterinary Clinics of North America. Exotic Animal Practice
Helen E Roberts, Brian Palmeiro

Abstract

Most aquarium fish live in a closed system, so the effects of toxins can be cumulative and devastating. Most cases of toxicity are due to deficiencies in husbandry and tank maintenance. Poor water quality kills more fish than infectious agents, making client education a very important preventive tool for aquatic practitioners. This article includes a discussion of toxicities related to water quality, chemotherapeutics, pesticides, and household substances.
