Abstract
A study was carried out in two pondsManaged fish farm pond (P1) and Unmanaged village pond (P2) in Arang district of Chhattisgarh on qualitative plankton diversity from January to April 2013. A total of seven classes of phytoplankton and three classes of zooplankton were recorded which contained 21 phytoplankton and 19 zooplankton species from both P1 and P2. Out of which 11 species of phytoplankton and 9 species of zooplankton were common at both the pond. P1 alone had 15 species of phytoplankton and 16 species of zooplankton. P2 had 17 species of phytoplankton and 13 species of zooplankton. P1 was richer in zooplankton and P2 was richer in phytoplankton. An inverse relationship was observed between phytoplankton and zooplankton abundance. ABSTRACT
