Seema S. Korde

Abstract :

The present paper deals with the aeromonas hydrohila infection in some common aquarium fishes. Media employed for isolation of Aeromonas hydrophila were reviewed and choice of Rimbler - Shtts agar was made in the initial phase of the study. It is beyond doubt that in the ulcerative disease of fish the organism may play an important role not only in necrotizing the muscle tissue but also damaging the internal liver and spleen besides the peritoneum.
