Abstract
Duplicate water samples from an unstocked tank and from each of four tanks stocked with starved “1-group” plaice were analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. It was found that bacterial counts obtained from samples taken from stocked tanks were significantly higher than those taken from an unstocked tank. Allowing for limited sampling, the flora of the water circulating through an unstocked tank did not radically differ from the flora of the water following the addition of starved fish. The predominant group was the Pseudomonas Group IV/ Achromobacter/Alcaligenes/Agrobacterium group.
