Effects of natural Zeolites on water quality used in fish culture

The experiments were carried out to deternination of effects clinoptilolite natural Zeolite on water quality during fish culture. Amount of 15and 30 g/l zeolite were used in experiments. Factors of the physico – chemical sauch as PH, salinity, EC, No2, NO3, NH4 and hardness were measured during 24, 48, 72, 96 and 144 hours. The resultes showed that there was significant differenc in total hardness, EC and total ammonia concentration by using clinoptilolite zeolite after 144 hours to control. There was no significant differenc by using clinoptilolite zeolite in between others. Results obtained in the trial revealed after 144 hours 80% total ammonia was absorbed by clinoptilolite Zeolite.
