Abstract
The acute toxicity of un-ionized ammonia to milkfish (Chanos chanos) fingerlings was determined using a static bioassay system. The 24-, 48-, 72-, and 96-hr LC50 values were calculated at 25.74 ppm NH3-N (1.89 ppm NH3), 23.06 ppm NH3-N (1.46 ppm NH3), 21.62 ppm NH3-N (1.25 ppm NH3) and 20.65 ppm NH3-N (1.12 ppm NH3), respectively.
