The Toxicity of Ammonia to the Summer Flounder (Paralychtus Dentatus), Atlantic Silverside (Menidia Menidia), and Quahog Clam (Mercenaria Mercenaria)
… may be set. Two saltwater fish, the Summer Flounder (Paralichthys dentatus), and the Atlantic Silverside (Menidia menidia) and one invertebrate, the Quahog Clam (Mercenaria mercenaria) were tested for acute toxicity to ammonia. The acute tests performed on the Summer Flounder (2 months old) …
