Analysis of pond water and sediment as well as skin and intestine of common carp, cultured under polycultre system, was done quantitatively and qualitatively. During the study of 60 days (winter and summer seasons), total viable counts of bacteria were in the range of 4.43±0.50x10 3 to 5.5 ±0.09x10 3 cfu g -1 and 7.43±0.03x10 3 to 9.66±0.09x10 3 cfu g -1 , respectively in water of A, B and C ponds. In the sediment, bacterial biomass during winter was in the range of 3.23 ±0.06x10 4 to 4.46± 0.15x10 4 cfu g -1
