“…Total hardness ranges from 822.33±1.52-769.66±2.08 mg LG 1 (Fig. 5), similar results were recorded by Boyd (1982) and Geiger (1983). However, a lower value of total hardness also reported such as 8-12 mg LG 1 (Cole and Boyd, 1986), ratios of hardness from 5-10 mg LG 1 (Mandal and Boyd, 1980).…”

Studies were conducted to investigate impacts of oxytetracycline on Barbonymus gonionotus muscle. Oxytetracycline the most widely used antibiotics, was fed to Barbonymus gonionotus with 4 g kgG 1 rate through diet for 45 days. Growth rate was observed for different concentrations of oxytetracycline. Water quality parameters and bacterial quantification were observed for a period of 21 days. Pond water, sediment and fish muscle were tested before and after oxytetracycline medicated feeding. Before feeding of oxytetracycline medicated feed, there was no oxytetracycline in water, sediment and fish muscles. After 2 days of feeding the initial oxytetracycline accumulation was 5070.0 ppb, which reduced considerably to 1190.0 ppb after 20 days from end of medicated diet feeding and not detected after 42 days. Physico-chemical parameters of pond water were determined. Before treatment dissolve oxygen, pH and total hardness of fish pond was 4.516±0.25 mg LG 1 , 7.413±0.09 and 822.33±1.52 ppm, respectively. After 21 days of study period, reached to 5.27±0.025 mg LG 1

“…Furthermore, 96.1% of the variation in the number of fish harvested (y) from each pond (regardless of pond size or rearing period) was explained by the number of fish stocked (x), and this relationship could be expressed as y ¼ À7.2 þ 0.352x. The mean survival found in this study is consistent with values reported by Geiger (1983) for striped bass stocked in 0.2-0.4-ha ponds in the southeastern United States (i.e., survival was 30-40% at 30-45 d poststocking).…”

The effect of pond size on survival and growth of fingerling striped bass Morone saxatilis in brackish‐water (5–10‰) ponds may be important in designing striped bass production facilities. Seven‐day‐old fry were stocked at densities of 248,000–317,000 fish/ha into 13 ponds (0.2–1.6 ha), and surviving fish were harvested about 1 month later. Pond size did not affect striped bass survival, growth, or production. Mean (±SE) survival over the rearing period was 36.4 ± 5.6%. Mean total length (TL) was 34.2 ± 0.9 mm. Mean production was 1.40 ± 0.17 kg·ha−1·d−1. Large ponds (at least 1.6 ha) are preferable over smaller ponds for producing 34‐mm‐TL striped bass fingerlings in brackish‐water ponds because of the lower cost of construction and maintenance and the reduced land and water use.

“…Moreover rotifer abundance could be attributed to decline in crustacean population as these were being preyed upon by larval fish in the ponds. As well, rotifers have the ability to reproduce rapidly via parthenogenesis (Geiger, 1983;Geiger et al, 1985;and Roche and Rocha, 2005). Among the rotifers, members of the family Brachionidae were the most dominant, as is typical of West African freshwater ecosystems (Egborge, 1981;Egborge and Chigbu, 1988;Akinbuwa and Adeniyi, 1991).…”

The taxonomic composition and community structure of zooplankton faunae of selected earthen fishponds in Ife North Local Government Area of Osun State, Nigeria were investigated for a period of two years sampling every other month. The study was based on three sets of fishponds with regards to fertilization practice and water flow regime. These include non flow-through ponds that received organic and inorganic fertilizers (FNF); flow-through ponds that received organic and inorganic fertilizers (FF) and unfertilized flowthrough ponds. The zooplankton fauna of the fishponds comprised of 81 species belonging to three phyla namely Rotifera (62 species belonging to 16 families and two orders), Arthropoda (6 cladocerans, 2 copepods, 6 ostracods, 4 insecta and one arachnid species) and Protozoa which was represented by only one species. Zooplankton species richness indices were generally higher in the flow-through ponds than in the non flow through ponds with some species occurring only in the fertilized flow-through ponds. The flow-through pond had the highest number of species 54, while the least number of species 37 was recorded from the non flowthrough pond. The fertilized non-flow-through ponds also had the .highest mean abundance of 36762 ± 56162 ind/m 3 , followed by fertilized flow-through ponds (34346 ± 40784 ind/m 3 ) and non-fertilized flow-through ponds (16006 ± 41263 ind/m 3 ) descending order. The means in zooplankton abundance among the ponds were, however, not statistically significant. The fertilized ponds supported zooplankton abundance while continuous water flow as observed in the flow-through had direct influence on diversity and species richness. Hence to achieve the desired effect of pond fertilization on its primary productivity, this must be accompanied by adequate water flowage especially in shallow fish ponds.
