ABSTRACT

Water samples, zooplankton community and sediment samples were analyzed at three sites in a pond receiving wastes, bi-weekly for seven months, covering the rainy and dry seasons. Water quality parameters failed to show significant differences between the sites for turbidity, total suspended solids, dissolved oxygen, transparency, conductivity, alkalinity and total phosphorous. Only temperature was different between the seasons. In the case of sediment, only aluminum (Al) was not different during the experimental period when highest calcium (Ca) concentrations were reported. The relative abundance of Rotifera during the sampling period reached 80-96% (rainy season) and 59-98% (dry season) in total zooplankton. Current study demonstrated that the water quality of shallow pond associated with allochthonous materials from aquaculture farm significantly influenced the structure of zooplankton assemblage due to high nutrient concentrations, conductivity, alkalinity and chlorophyll-α causing more fertilized water. However, heavy rains (February-April) and continuous water flow favored aeration (dissolved oxygen > 5.2 ± 1 mg L-¹). The use of pond water for agricultural irrigation or for other purposes, must be analyzed more effectively, avoiding problems caused by its usage.


Amostras de água, comunidade zooplanctônica e sedimento foram analisadas em três pontos de um viveiro receptor de resíduos a cada quinze dias, durante as estações de chuva e seca. Os parâmetros de qualidade da água não apresentaram diferenças significativas entre os pontos amostrais em relação a turbidez, sólidos suspensos totais, oxigênio dissolvido, transparência, condutividade, alcalinidade e fósforo total e a temperatura foi a única variável diferente entre as estações. Em relação ao sedimento, somente o alumínio (Al) não foi diferente durante o período experimental e foram encontradas elevadas concentrações de cálcio (Ca). Abundância relativa de Rotifera durante o período de amostragem representou 80-96% (estação chuvosa) e 59-98% (estação seca) em relação ao zooplâncton total. O estudo demonstrou que a qualidade da água do viveiro associada aos materiais alóctones provenientes da fazenda de aquicultura influenciaram significativamente a estrutura da comunidade zooplanctônica devido às altas concentrações de nutrientes, condutividade, alcalinidade e clorofila-α, tornando a água mais fertilizada. A utilização da água do viveiro para irrigação agrícola ou para outros propósitos deve ser analisada de forma mais efetiva, evitando assim qualquer problema decorrente do seu uso.

ABSTRACT

Current study evaluates the macrophyte biomass of water hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes, in diet food to improve the growth and survival of angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare. The liquid (extract) and ground modes are employed. Specific growth rate, weight gain, feed intake and final body weight in basal diet and macrophyte extract biomass diets were similar (p > 0.05). Fish survival was high in all dietary treatments (> 90%), while survival percentage of 100% was reported in ground macrophyte biomass treatment. Ground macrophyte biomass may be included in the diet of P. scalare up to 5%. The inclusion of E. crassipes in the diet of P. scalare proved similar or better results than basal diet. The macrophyte proved to be a food strategy in angelfish diets that may be implemented in the speciess diet at 32% levels of crude protein. The latter, easily found in tropical regions, affects directly the speciess growth and survival rates.(AU)

The latter, easily found in tropical regions, affects directly the species’s growth and survival rates.
