We used a controlled laboratory experiment to test the concurrent effects of projected future summer and winter ocean temperatures, ocean acidification, and novel species interaction on the physiology of range-extending tropical and co-shoaling native temperate fish species across a 38-day exposure period. Physiological proxies including total antioxidant capacity, malondialdehyde, fulton's condition index, hepatosomatic index, stomach fullness and total lipid content were measured.
