Description In any aquaculture programme, the limnological studies
are o£ great significance and in latter studies the practical
value o£ preparing ponds for fish culture is of great
importance. The importance lies in the capacity of pond to
sustain high productivity which largely depends on the
exchange of nutrients that takes place between the water
and the soil. The soil plays several important roles such
as in the storage and release of nutrients. In shallow water
bodies such as culture ponds there is an intense interchange
of organic and mineral compounds between the soil and the
water. The soil profits more as it is constantly enriched
by organic matter. The main processes taking place at the
bottom of the pond are accumulation and decomposition of
organic matter. As a result of this accumulation of organic
matter, important macro elements are eliminated from the pond
water and immobilised on the bottom, while the decomposition
of organic matter not only release minerals but contribute
also to the dissolution of available phosphate and carbonate.
