Short and to the point is that too many chemoorganoheterotrophs will use up all the oxygen in the water. I'll talk more in depth about this as we go.
Too short to be entirely accurate, IMO. Inherent in that statement is the assumption that there is excess organic matter available. The whole premise of organic carbon dosing is that organics are limiting, not the bacteria to consume them.
