Abstract: Marine shrimp farmers generally believe that bottom soil quality in ponds deteriorates over time because of sediment accumulation, declining pH, and increasing organic matter concentration. Pond bottom soil management has received much attention in marine shrimp culture. Totally 9 different soil samples were collected from shrimp culture farm at Nagapattinam district, Tamilnadu and their physico-chemical properties were analyzed. Our research goal was to determine the prevalence, properties, persistence, and types of bacteria in shrimp aquaculture. In the present investigation the Lactobacillus sp. 2.33 x 10-6 - 2.88 x 10-6 CFU/ml occupied dominant role.
