Abstract: Water is an essential element found on Earth, without which we cannot survive and no form of any type of life can exist. Water is found in small and large ponds, lakes, rivers, and oceans on Earth, and when it comes to clean or fresh water, it mainly exists as ice at the poles. Water is an essential component of our lives. It is the fundamental basis for energy sources, health, and the balanced development of our bodies. Our daily routine is incomplete without water, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that life is impossible without water because all living beings' biological processes are based on it. We use water for various purposes, such as energy production, irrigation, aquaculture, etc. Aquaculture has emerged as a highly important productive sector, fulfilling not just the dietary needs of people at the local level but also their economic needs. Ponds are super important natural production areas where you can find all sorts of aquatic creatures and plants. Among them, fish are a key species that are raised in various water sources. Fish make up more than half of all vertebrate animals, and Nelson (2006) described about 27, 977 fish species in his book. Fish are a rich source of protein, which is why they play a big role in many people's diets. Fishing is a crucial part of the economy in many countries because the fish farming business helps improve people's nutrition standards. Aquaculture or fishing can be an effective way to produce food in an environmentally friendly manner and conserve water and land resources. The main aim of this research paper is to study the diversity of various fish found in two ponds in the Jobat tehsil of Alirajpur district so that biodiversity can be conserved the quality of the ecosystem can be protected, and the intrinsic value of all species can be understood.
