Diazinon and deltamethrin are common useful agricultural pesticides in the world. The present research compared the acute toxicity of diazinon and deltamethrin to tench larvae and fingerling. LC<sub>50</sub> of 24 h, 48-h, 72 h and 96 h were determined using a probit. Fish samples (21 fish in each test group) were exposed to different concentrations of diazinon and deltamethrin (diazinon: for fingerling between1-20 ppm and larvae 0.25-2 ppm, deltamethrin: for fingerling between 0.01-0.2 ppm and larvae 0.0025-0.02) for 96 h and mortality were recorded. The LC<sub>50</sub> 96 h of diazinon for fingerlings and larvae were 6.77 and 0.63, respectively. The LC<sub>50</sub> 96 h of deltamethrin for fingerlings and larvae were 0.07 and 0.005 ppm, respectively. According to the results, larvae are more sensitive than fingerlings, LC<sub>50</sub> values indicated that deltamethrin is more toxic than diazinon to Tinca tinca , so we suggest to use diazinon instead of deltamethrin in agriculture.
