blue green algae consumption by fish

[micko]

hi everyone just registered to chat to you all and finding questions and comments rather interesting and informative.could someone tell me about how a fish processes blue green algae through its system and the ramifications on eating the fish. ;D ;D ;D

G'day Micko.
As far as I know, the fish are only killed by oxygen deprevation (when the algae is so thick it blocks out the sunlight killing aquatic weed) and not by the ingestion of the algae - not sure how they process it.
I do know that you can eat the fish as long as you don't eat it's intestines :-X

Cheers, Slates
