Abstract
The depletion of dissolved oxygen content in tap water and in effluent concentrations caused a stress and altered the normal oxygen consumption.The increase in the rate of Oxygen consumption due to depletion of dissolved oxygen was statistically significant (P<0.05).With the increase in effluent concentration, a decrease in oxygen consumption by Labeo rohita was observed but this decrease was not statistically significant (P>0.05).
