BIOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF WASTE WATER FROM FISH POND
ABSTRACT
The biophysical properties of effluent from fishponds were analyzed with standard physiochemical and microbiological methods. The surface bottom water samples were aseptically collected. The population of total heterotrophic bacteria ranges from 3.6×104- 4.1×104.The total heterotrophic fungal ranges from 1.3×103- 1.8×103. The bacteria associated from fish pond include Klebsiella sp, Enterobacter sp, Shigella sp, Salmonella sp,Escherichia coli sp and pseudomonas sp. The physiochemical characteristics shows that the PH of the sample ranged from 6.98-7.11. The electrical conductivity of the sample ranged from 25-84. The temperature of the sample is 22.5-22.8. The effluent can reduce the environmental contamination and improve the use for increase of soil fertility in agricultural areas.
