Synopsis:
Aquaman is sent to a marshland lake to retrieve a package accidentally dropped from a plane. The package contains rare chemicals and could be dangerous. Aquaman enters the lake and finds the package. He also discovers that the ordinarily small tropical fish have become gigantic.

Aquaman escapes from the giant fish. He then realizes that the fish are normal size, but that he has become tiny. His condition was caused by the chemicals which had leaked from the package and contaminated the lake. Despite his size, Aquaman is able to remove the package from the lake, and he eventually returns to normal.
