Abstract
The writer have studied on hatching rate of Ioaches' eggs putting them into the water with various degrees of PH controlled by HCL or NaOH
The optimum PH for hatching was found to exist between 6.0 and 7.2 the hatching rate was much higher in the acid water than in the alkaline. The range of PH for hatching lied between 3.8 to 10.0
In the course of experiment the rates of died eggs after fartilization to total died eggs were observed as follows:
In the 1st experiment. 0-3 hours after fertilization……acid side was larger than alkaline side; 3-7 hours after fertilization……alkaline side was larger than acid side; 7-18 hours after fer tilization……acid side was larger than alkaline side.
In the 2nd experiment. 0-4.5 hours after fertilization……acid side was larger than alkaline side; 4.5-8 hours after fertilization……alkaline side was larger than acid side; 8-19 hours after fertilization……acid side was larger than alkaline side.
Malformed fishes were found only in both strong acid and alkaline waters.
