Mussels are fiilter feeders, so any type of pollution in the water can lead to their population decreasing. Mussels also thrive on sunlight, which is why they live near the surface. When there is more algae in the water, it creates darker water and blocks out some of that sunlight. This can cause the mussels to die off.
