White it is poisonous only for fish, and other advanced animals will not be poisoned. To some extent, it is poisonous for shellfish and clamworm but it doesn't kill shrimps unless the level of Tea Saponin is 40 times as much as it is to fish. The resistance of shrimps to Tea Saponin is much higher because shrimps have a different type of haemoglobin. The haemoglobin of fish consists of ferrous haemochrome, but the haemoglobin of fish consists of copper haemocyanin. And Tea Saponin is mainly effective on haemochrome.

The fish will die in 3 to 4 hours.
