The answer is <span>The increased nitrates from the fertilizers leech into the water and cause algal blooms, which take oxygen out of the water and this suffocates fish.</span>. 


Algae blooms are the consequence of large amounts of farm fertilizers in the rivers, which increases nitrates level in the water. Algae use the presence of increased nutrients and enhance their own growth. It is known that they produce an oxygen in the photosynthesis, so it is not a problem while they are still alive. But when these organisms die, their decomposition begins. For the process of decomposition, the oxygen is needed and ultimately it will be depleted from a body of water. This could lead to the death of aquatic animals, such as fish, that depend on oxygen.

Describe one way that freshwater animals can compensate for ions lost during excretion of excess water
Anon25 [30]

They replace the lost ions by active uptake through active transport of ions from the surrounding waters.  This is exhibited in freshwater fishes that actively take in these ions through the gills.  Most of the ions involved in osmoregulation in freshwater are those of Na+ and Cl-.
