Abstract

Results of preliminary experiments on the recovery of rainbow trout after exposure to acid water (pH 5.0) or to acid water with Al (pH 5.0 + 100 mu g Al/l) are presented. Recovery was studied at pH 6.9 with low (1.0 mg/l) and high (19.0 mg/l) Ca-levels. Compared to acid stress alone, fish were more affected by the combined stress of acidity and Al (90% mortality, severe Na- and Cl- whole body loss). Depleted plasma Na-content increased faster to normal values after combined acid + Al stress. High Ca-levels in the water did not favor recovery in these experiments. -from Authors
