The paper defines micro-algae and states its ecological importance especially in the wild and as a major feed for the mass culture of zooplankton needed to feed fish larvae, fry and fingerlings in fish hatcheries. Methodologies for micro-algal isolation are discussed in relation to nutrient requirement, and culture techniques. The use of the haemacytometer as a handy tool for the counting of micro-algae is also described
