Dr. Tomas Brodin of Umea University is the lead author of a study that looked at how wild European perch responded to dilute concentrations of a common psychiatric medication found in river runoff.
Researchers in Sweden exposed wild European perch to water with different concentrations of Oxazepam, a generic anti-anxiety medication that can show up in waterways after being flushed, excreted or discarded.
Researchers reported that fish exposed to Oxazepam became less social, more active and ate faster, behaviors they said could have long-term consequences for aquatic ecosystems.

To those on anti anxiety meds, please keep it up and possibly double up on your dosage! Apparently you peeing in your toilet makes fish more active and will make them eat faster, thus improving the bite!
Please go pee in DVL.
