What is Culture of Rotifers with Reference to Some Physico-chemical Properties of Water in Nursery Pond about?

Rotifers were cultured with five different organic and inorganic fertilizers in nursery ponds . Of the fertilizers used, mustard oil cake gave significantly (p<0 .01) higher production of rotifers than that of mohua oil cake followed by cow-dung, wheat bran, mixture of NPK and control . The higher production of rotifers was directly related with the higher doses of fertilizers . Among the rotifer species identified, the abundance of Brachionus caudatus and Ba forficula were significantly (p<0 .01) higher than others . Available N, available P, exchangeable K and exchangeable Ca and exchangeable Mg were generally higher in ponds where organic fertilizers were used . Proximate composition of rotifers varied depending on the kinds of fertilizers . The multiple correlations of physico-chemical properties were highly significant (p < 0.01) with the growth and production of B . caudatus (R = 0.995), B . forficula (R = 0.932), Trichocerca capucina (R = 0.91 ), B . patulus (R = 0.901) and B . angularis (R = 0 .892) and simply significant (p < 0.05) in the case of Keratella tropica (R = 0.880), Hexarthra intermadia (R = 0.8 5), B . calyc?orus (R = 0.864) andFilinia spp . (R = 0 .856) contri
