Pesticides are generally toxic to many non-target invertebrate species such as fish. The present work was carried out to evaluate the toxicity effects ofChlorpyrifos and Abamectin against tilapia nilotica fish. Also, the effect of sublethal concentrations (LClO and LCzs) of tested pesticide on the activities of some biochemical parameters of fish after exposure period of 21 days was investigated. The effects of tested pesticides on the histopathology of gills and liver of fish were studied as well. The 96 hr LCso value of Chlorphos and Abamectin was found to be 0.05 and 0.02 mg/L respectively.
