Hey buddy,
Here is your answer,

Acid rain affects aquatic life and surface waters, by changing the pH level in bodies of water.  When there is a high amount of sulfuric acid, it interferes with a fish’s ability to take in nutrients, salt, and oxygen.  For freshwater fish, this acid affects their ability to maintain a balance between minerals and salts in their tissues, which the need to survive.  This acid also results in mucus forming in their gills, causing them to not get adequate amounts of oxygen.  This change in pH level impairs some of the fish’s ability to maintain their calcium levels, causes an imbalance of salt in their tissues, and impairs the reproduction ability of the fish.

1-The ecological effects of acid rainare most clearly seen in aquatic environments, such as streams, lakes, and marshes where it can beharmful to fish and other wildlife. As it flows through the soil, acidic rain water can leach aluminum from soil clay particles and then flow into streams and lakes. 2-aquati organismsDead fish, crabs, birds and sea gulls, dolphins, and many otheranimals often wind up on beaches, killed by pollutants in their habitat (living environment). Pollution disrupts the natural food chain as well. ... The worst is when water is polluted rain is scarce so waterpollution has also negative effectson humans.
