Abstract
The main objectives of study were to monitor the metals concentrations in freshwater fish species Carassius gibelio and Esox lucius and to identify any relationships between species and bioaccumulation of metals The highest concentration of metals cadmium 196 copper 242 zinc 496 lead 54 chromium 44 between the fish species and tissues was in the liver of Esox lucius while the lowest cadmium021 copper72 zinc194 lead09 chromium06 μg/g found in the muscle of Carassius gibelio Results showed that the metal concentrations were in fishes in descending order of zinc copper lead chromium cadmium similarly in the tissue liver kidney gill ~ intestine muscle
