Summary

Introduction

Aquaculture is one of the furthermost significant segments which performance a noteworthy character in the economy of Bangladesh in term of foodstuff, nourishment, revenue, and occupation and overseas exchange wages.

Aqua-C, Aqua Boost, Cevit-Aqua, Rena C,Vitax-C, are used to growth supporter These are far and wide used to counterbalance acidity, upsurge total alkalinity, escalation hardness in the soil and water of grow out pond, condense turbidity in ponds, chalets divalent and trivalent metal cautions etc. Allowing for the overhead realities, the contemporaneous investigation was accompanied to categorize the varieties of aqua-medicines used in aquahealth administration and to distinguish persistence of using, applicable dosages and technique of application of aqua-medicine in fish culture at Jessore sadar upazila, Jessore, Bangladesh
