Fish that contain high levels of mercury include:

• Shark
• Ray
• Swordfish
• Barramundi
• Gemfish
• Orange roughy
• Ling
• Southern bluefin tuna

It is recommended that pregnant women, women planning a pregnancy, and young children (up to 6 years) avoid consuming fish that contain high levels of mercury, as the unborn baby is most sensitive to the effects of mercury, particularly during the third and fourth months of gestation.
