Geography
It originates on the southern slope of the Donetsk ridge at an altitude of about 190 m [5] under the name Left Tuzlov [2] [3] on the territory of the Sverdlovsk district of the Luhansk region of Ukraine. It flows through the territory of Ukraine for 10 km, including 4 km along the border of Russia with Ukraine, [3] the rest of the flow - in the Rostov region of Russia.
After accepting the tributary of the Middle Tuzlov, the right bank is high and steep, the left one is gentle; narrowed bed. The speeds here are quite high. Near the village of Karpo-Nikolaevka, the river turns east and the valley expands significantly, forming a wide loan. The river bed becomes winding, significantly increases its length, by almost 30-40 km against a straight line, forming a series of loops.
It flows along the flat terrain, the flow velocity does not exceed 1 m / s. The channel is meandering, meander type.
Water Mode
Mixed food (mostly snow). The volume of river runoff is formed due to snow, rain and underground nutrition. High water in March - April. In the upper reaches in summer, it dries up. The average annual flow rate is 60 km from the mouth of 2.1 m³ / s, the maximum is 415 m³ / s, the minimum is 0.19 m³ / s.

Flora and Fauna
During research in 2015—2016 38 zooplankton taxa were recorded in the river, of which 28 species and forms of Rotifera (74%), 5 - Copepoda (13%) and 5 - Cladocera (13%) [6] .
According to long-term observations of the Aksay regional fish inspection, producers of fish, shemai, pike perch, bream, carp, pike, and pike are visited annually in the spring for spawning in the Tuzlov river basin through the Aksai channel, and the number of fish entering from year to year varies very much, and the spawning rate depends from the water content of the year. The studies revealed that the juveniles of many fish species in the lower and middle reaches of the river to a large extent use zooplankers for feeding right up to the slope in the river.
