#2673, "RE: RED water"
In response to In response to 4

More:
PSP is caused by a naturally-occuring algae (plankton) in coastal waters. When water temperatures rise, the amount of the algae increases in the water. As bivalve molluscs feed on this algae by filtering large volumes of water, they accummuate and concentrate the toxins. Coastal areas are regularly monitored for PSP toxin levels and closures for harvesting of bivalve molluscs are implemented when levels exceed those that are safe for human consumption. PSP toxins generally only occur in bivalve molluscs
