Abstract
⺠Fish farm effluent discharge had moderate effects on stream water quality. ⺠Impacts on the benthic invertebrate community occurred at one stream. ⺠Whole-stream nitrate uptake showed no consistent impact pattern. ⺠Effluents caused considerable increases in stream ecosystem metabolism. ⺠Compliance with best management practices is important for small fish farms.
