Water pH affects the fertility waters because it affects the lives of microorganisms. Acidic waters will be less productive, can even kill domestic animals. At low pH dissolved oxygen content is reduced, as a result of decreased oxygen consumption, decreased respiratory activity, respiratory activity rose and appetite will decrease, the opposite occurs in alkaline conditions. On this basis, the aquaculture ...

The presence of this water movement, resulting in turnover (circulation) heat, solutes and water bodies. This gives rise to the movement of the water flow is not fixed (turbulence) and the speed of the water mass. Motion turbulence becomes large so-called “current system” consisting of: a) The current system is not periodic. The current system is the water flow in ...
