Water Quality

Updated Sep 12

pH Level (Acidity/Alkalinity)6.6

Measures water acidity or alkalinity on a scale of 0-14. Neutral is 7. Most fish thrive in 6.5-8.5 range.

Escherichia coli (E. coli) Bacteria488.4 MPN/100mL

Common fecal coliform bacteria indicating possible sewage contamination. EPA recreational limit: <126 MPN/100mL.

Water Temperature14.7 °C

Water temperature directly affects fish metabolism and activity. Optimal range varies by species.

No3 (mg/L) (Water Quality Parameter)15.5

No3 (mg/L) - a water quality measurement. Contact local authorities for specific safety guidelines.

Water Temperature14.7 °C

Water temperature directly affects fish metabolism and activity. Optimal range varies by species.

Electrical Conductivity418.0 µS/cm

Measures dissolved ions and minerals in water. Indicates salinity and pollution levels. Freshwater: 100-500 µS/cm.

Escherichia coli (E. coli) Bacteria488.4 MPN/100mL

Common fecal coliform bacteria indicating possible sewage contamination. EPA recreational limit: <126 MPN/100mL.

Conductivity (µS/cm) (Water Quality Parameter)418.0

Conductivity (µS/cm) - a water quality measurement. Contact local authorities for specific safety guidelines.

Specific Conductance (Electrical Conductivity)418.0 µS/cm

Measures dissolved ions and minerals in water. Indicates salinity and pollution levels. Freshwater: 100-500 µS/cm.
