Feces in the aquatic environment can be direct linked to the growth of some aquatic plants and algae because it enrich the soil of the river/lake for the aquatic plants populations. The fecal matter is rich in some inorganic components that are important for the vegetal growth, and that are useful to maintain a balance in the bacteria and decomposers in the aquatic environment. Phosphate, Nitrogen, and Ammonia are the most common elements responsible for the plants growth in this situation.
