Filmed 20 minutes north of Palm Beach County, FL on Tuesday May 18, 2010 at 9:00a EST. Is the BP oil spill the cause of hundreds of dead fish washing up on Southeast Florida beaches? Cold weather is capable of killing certain types of fish. This morning, area temperatures were near 90*F. Video copyright of www.landofthemarvelous.com Subscribe for more updates.

@nirvgardengod ya i’d say millions of gallons is just “a little” haha
The problem with these fish is not the oil. It’s the dispersant.
“Niki Desjardins, a senior scientist at Environmental Associate… reported finding between 500 and 1,000 dead Atlantic croakers, each 5 to 6 inches long”

@Vote4Nava Why are you spewing disinfo? They totally are shooting chemical dispersants 5,000 feet beneath the sea and also spraying it on the surface.
@monkeychief25 I’m sure everything is getting blown out of proportion. oil is natural and im sure the ocean will be able to deal with a little extra oil.
Those Fish could be there for any number of reasons, my guess a fisherman castnetted them and left them there, I don’t mean to downplay the situation but instantly blaming this on the oil spill seems rather alarmist
I live in Louisiana and I just want to cry everything I have ever known is gone. 2012 here we come. God please take me in the rapture!! I can’t stand to see any more!!
I apologize for not being more informational. I actually responded to “starlight1946’s” question: Did the oil or the chemicals added to the oil spill kill them?
I responded: Since the oil spewed directly from the ground, no chemicals had a chance to be added. Therefore, no chemicals; only oil.
I thought my reply was obviously stating that the oil killed the sea life w/o chemical additives & therefore, oil is already toxic w/o chemicals added.
Whoever thinks otherwise is stupid.
Not even the tip of the iceberg of what is coming.
sad very sad 🙁
Vote4Nava,
Crude is extremely toxic even straight out of the ground. It’s cleaned up before you pump it at the station.

this sends chills down my spine!
totally common to see dead baitfish on the beach right now. Schools of bait are moving into our waters with the change of season and they frequently wash up on the beach after being attacked and injured by predatory fish that follow them around feeding on them. To post this in the context of the oil spill is self-serving and irresponsible. Not to say it could not happen within a few weeks, but this is premature and unrelated.
call me skeptical but I’m waiting for a SCIENTIST to confirm what killed those fish. NOT some weekend videographer thanks. It’s bait running season and this sight is not uncommon.
@Vote4Nava yah man sorry to say but yah lots of dispersant being sprayed
@RonPaulMall were you just lolling around or were you being serious?? 😛
@Vote4Nava Why are you spewing disinfo? They totally are shooting chemical dispersants 5,000 feet beneath the sea and also spraying it on the surface.
The government is letting BP destroy the gulf! in just a few more weeks half of the gulf and many beaches and tourism will be destroyed by the oil volcano! seafood poisioned forever! Hotels empty, black beaches with oil and shit balls and dead fish!
@starlight1946 Since the oil spewed directly from the ground, no chemicals had a chance to be added. Therefore, no chemicals; only oil.
This is DOOM!!
Not many are even interested in this kind of news. Read some posts on news site, Treasure Coast/Palm Beach area, and they just seem to think it’s a lot of hype about nothing. People don’t care, sad.
spill baby spill
Did the oil or the chemicals added to the oil spill kill them?
