Sea bream, ammonia, heavy metals, antioxidantsAbstract
This research was conducted in the outskirts of Alexandria City, in Lake Marriott between December 2021 and June 2022. Samples of water and sea bream fish were brought from a fish farm. Through analysis of water and fish samples, it became clear that the water samples were poor due to the presence of high levels of ammonia and heavy metal such as cadmium and lead. And it resulted in stress for the fish and it was evident by the analysis of antioxidants that consider biological indicators of the lack of water and soil quality in which the fish live.
