When red tide algae reproduce in dense concentrations or "blooms," they are visible as discolored patches of ocean water, often reddish in color. .Respiratory, nose, throat, and eye irritation Occurs to people living near the areas affected by red tide. Three common signs of a red tide bloom are discolored water, dead fish, and breathing difficulty. Scientifically, a plausible reason is yet to be found for the red tide Phenomenon.
