the sulphate ion in acid rain is able to release aluminium ions from the soil surrounding the lakes, when the fish is poisoned by the aluminium, it's gills become covered intil mucus and eventually it cannot get enough oxygen to breath.
Acid rain changes the pH of the water to make it more acidic. Fish can only survive in water with a specific pH. If the pH of the water is changed too much, then the fish cannot survive in the environment of that water
Acid rain negatively affects fish by raising the acidity of the water to a level the fish cannot abide and by leaching metals such as aluminum from the soil that can poison fish. Acid rain effects Fishes because when the (acid)rain falls in the pond or the lake, the acid collects in the water becoming stronger and stronger until the fish can't live any longer.
