The development of the periphytic algae and macrofauna was examined in two fish ponds. 43 genera of algae (mainly diatoms) were found on the substrates, and the maximum of algae was reached on the 10th day. The periphytic macrofauna consisted of 37 taxonomical groups (mainly Chironomidae). Larvae of
Measurements of primary production by phytoplankton in four fish ponds over a period of one year revealed a distinct spatial variation in rate. The ponds were usedfor polyculture, monoculture, or a traditional system of fish culture. The rates of gross photosynthesis were highly correlated with temp
