36 specimen of Labeo rohita, Cirrhinus mrigala, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix Catla catla were sampled from three ponds of different depth (5, 4 and 2.5 feet, respectively) to compare the body composition parameter of these fish of various species in relation to pond depth. It was revealed that there was significant effect (P less than 0.001) of depth on % water, % ash, % organic, % fat and % protein contents (all % wet and .body weight). It was observed that pond depth has significant effect (P less than 0.01) on condition factor in pond B (4 feet depth) and no effect in pond A and C. The present study suggested that maximum mean values of body composition parameters were observed in Labeo rohita in all three ponds. While values of the same body composition parameter in ponds of different depths for the same species.
