The fish probably had the least trouble of all, just a bit sloshed around, with the exception of rock caves that may have collapsed.

Poor folks.

Sad thing. Like wuv said I dont think it could do much harm to the fish since most fish are alert and dont wait until rocks fall on there heads but some fish m ay have gotten killed.

That said, these earthquakes are the very reason the rift valley lakes exist............

I was thinking release of gasses... temps... a few degrees either way and it still could make an impact.
