What is Fish Impact on Macrophyte Loss in Lakes about?

1. The study investigated the effects of stocking carp, roach, bream, and tench at biomasses ranging from 0 to 800 kg ha-1 in experimental mesocosms in a shallow lake in the UK over two summers. 2. Carp had a greater detrimental effect on macrophytes than the other fish species. A biomass over 200 kg ha-1 adversely affected macrophyte growth. 3. The decline in macrophytes was likely due to increased epiphyton growth from nutrient release by the fish, which reduced light and carbon dioxide availability for
