ABSTRACT:

Management and conservation of Tilapia fishes was made with different concentration of primary treated spentwash (PTSW) (0.1% to 2.2%) in water. Spentwash was analyzed for its physico-chemical parameters. Fingerlings fishes (obtained from V.C. Farm, Mandya, Karnataka), were divided into 23 groups (G1 to G23) of 12each and keeping G1 as control unit, G2 to G23 were exposed to different concentrations of primary treated spentwash for a period of 6 days in different aquariums of 36" x 15" x 18" size. It was
