Use of Fish in the Detection of Contaminants in Water Supplies
This paper discusses a simple, inexpensive, and easy‐to‐operate fish monitoring system for detecting the contamination of a water supply. Fish are killed by many chemicals in concentrations far below those that seriously affect humans. Live fish can be used in a continuous monitoring system for rapidly detecting many of these toxicants. After initial detection, the physiologic reactions of the fish and the relationship between the reaction time and the concentration may be helpful in identifying the type and concentration of the toxicant.
