A survey of benthic animals in an experimental pond was conducted during 1998-2000. Basic data was collected during this study in order to conduct further experiments on simulated fish-releasing tests using reconditioned salt ponds as experimental releasing grounds. The annual total number of benthic animals (mio- and macro-benthic animals) ranged between 47-104 species. During the three-year period, NEMATODA increased in terms of component ratio and was the major occurring species. The component ratio of NEMATODA was highest at the outlet of the pond, and was effective as an indicator in the determination of bottom quality.
