Chemical pollutants in the environment have the potential to interact with the nervous system, thereby affecting the behavior and neurophysiology of an organism. In the aquatic environment, such neuroactive chemicals are omnipresent and pose a potential threat to aquatic organisms including fish. However, there is still a lack of understanding of how neuroactive chemicals influence the behavior of fish and interact with neural circuits controlling a wide variety of bodily functions.
