Abstract	The current aquatic studies of toxicity of chromium chloride depond on biotic or abiotic factors i.e. temperature, concentration of Metal Salt Oxidation, PH, values, alkalinity, salinity and hardness of water. The experimental fish caused external behaviour responses observed were rest lessens, jumping, erratic swimming, gulping of air at the surface, loss of equilibrium sluggishness, opercular movements and fishes lied on the water surface before death and morphological changes like, discoloration of skin pigmented patches on body, shedding of scales sedimentation of chemical on body, mucous secretion and ballooning were observed in exposed animals the observed data shown the H. fossilis can be used as a good bio-indicator for heavy metal contamination in fresh water bodies.
