Abstract:

Water mites are common, however not a too numerous component of the food of tench, carp and Crucian carp, their share in the food biomass is small, similar to their share in the biomass of the invertebrate fauna, which inhabits the environment. In fish alimentary canals smaller species dominate, contrary to the environment.
