Yadav et al. (2007) studied on fertilizer industrial discharge showed that some components in the discharge may interact with each other and produce toxic to aquatic organisms. For instance, the interaction between dissolved oxygen and ammonia changed the respiratory physiology in fresh water fish. In addition, results showed that the toxicity of the effluent in fish depends on concentration and duration of exposure. Several study showed that the excess concentration of ammonia, whether is ionized or unionized, is one of the major contaminants in fertilizer discharge and it is toxic to aquatic living organism. It could cause impairment to the cerebral energy in fish, such as O | Contents Ice in fisheries Table of contents by J. Graham W. A. Johnston and F. J.
