The article discusses the results of the study of biofouling and hydrochemical indicators conducted in Karadag Dolphinarium in May 2019. The different species of invertebrates (ascidians, sponges, balanus, ciliates, bryozoans, mitilasters, etc.), fragments of the red algae Ceramium sp. were found. Diatoms (17 species and infraspecific taxa, 13 genera) were also identified. Colonial heterotrophic species Bacillaria paxillifer, Berkeleya rutilans, Nitzschia hybrida f. hyalina, Parlibellus delognei were observed in large quantities. Moreover, a single potentially toxic species of Halamphora coffeiformis was recorded. Cyanobacteria (12 species, 7 genera) with a predominance of colonies of Phormidium and Spirulina were detected for the first time. Additionally, the researchers documented new species for Crimea and the Black Sea: Gloeocapsopsis pleurocapsoides, Leptolyngbya ectocarpi, and Phormidium roseum. Among cyanobacteria, 6 species containing phycocyanin pigments were noted with intense cells colours ranging from pink to purple. A list of diatoms and cyanobacteria was compiled, indicating ecological and phytogeographic characteristics. Microphotographs of some species of biota in their living state were provided. It was proved that the concentration of mineral forms of nitrogen and phosphorus in the water of dolphinarium was high, while the content of silicon was close to the seawater. According to the results of biological analysis and hydrochemical indicators, the condition of the pool is satisfactory for keeping mammals. However, it is recommended to clean the pool walls mechanically more often to prevent the excessive biofouling development.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
