Zinc sulphate in concentration 25 mg.l<sup>-1</sup> was added to water in aquarium. Food intake, clinicl symptoms and histological changes were followed after gamma-irradiation and zinc sulfid in guppy <em>Poecilia reticulata</em>. In the first days timidity and lethargy were observed. The most prominent clinical symptoms observed were emaciation, hampered breathing and haemorrhages. Histological findings corresponded with these symptoms.</p> ER -
