Abstract

Plankton is most essential for many fishes as food. The growth of plankton feeding fishes mostly depends on plankton dynamics of the water body.In the complex chain of community metabolism, the different trophic strata, and a fraction of which ends up as fish flesh. Therefore, structure of different fish food biotic communities assumes greater significance to reservoir fish management. Ambadi reservoir in Kinwat Taluka of Nanded District of Maharashtra. represents 17 species of zooplankton.These include 6 species of rotifera, 4 species of copepoda, 6 species of cladocera and 1 species of ostracoda.
