Quality of an aquatic ecosystem is depended on the physic chemical

qualities of water as also on the bio logical diversity of the system
(Ghavzan et at 2006, Tiwari and chauhan 2006 Tas and gonulal
2007) cairns and Dickson (1971) stated that analyses of bio logical
materials along with chemical fctors f water forms a valid method of
water quality assement.
The water body was assessed from the month of November 2013 to
march 2014.The values of different physico-chemical parameters were
recorded as follows.
