Notes: Six batches of 10 snails were exposed to different concentrations. Mortality was determined at every 24 h up to 96 h. Concentrations given are the final concentration (w/v) in the glass aquarium water. Ext Chl - extracted chlorophyllin, LCL - lower confidence limit, UCL - upper confidence limit. Significant negative regression (p<0.05) was observed between exposure time and LC50 of treatments. Ts - testing significant of the regression coefficient of green light −13.31+ to −2.62+ and 0.0++ to 2520++, violet light −13.73+ to −3.86+ and 0.0++ to 2629++, blue light −9.46+ to −3.10+ and 0.0++ to 1889++, orange light −10.12+ to −3.71+ and 0.0++ to 1887++, red light −9.05+ to −3.14+ and 0.0++ to 1685++, white light −5.89+ to −1.67+ and 0.0++ to 1188++, yellow light −3.63+ to −2.58+ and 0.0++ to 1018++ was observed. +Linear regression between X and Y. ++Non-linear regression between X and Y.
