Tarahara Fish Farm includes 37 large ponds as a fish super zone. Physicochemical parameters viz., air and water temperature, pH, DO, BOD, CO2, Cl-, TA and TH of these ponds were studied for two years (Nov. 2008 to Oct. 2010). The air temperature had positive and significant correlation with water temperature (r=0.893, P<0.01) but inverse and significant correlation with DO (r = - 0.669 P<0.05) and TH (r = - 0.673, P<0.05). Both air and water temperature showed a decreasing trend during the winter months of November to January and again September to October in both years. Similarly, positive and significant correlation showed by pH with DO (r =0.660, P<0.05) and BOD (r =0.846, P<0.05); by free CO2 with DO (r=0.854, P<0.01), chloride (r=0.648, P<0.05) and TA (r=0.616, P<0.05); by DO with TA (r =0.715, P<0.01) and chloride (r =0.625, P<0.05) and by TH with TA (r= 0.592, P<0.05) but inverse and significant correlation showed by pH with water temperature (r =-0.671, P<0.05); by free CO2 with BOD (r=-0.627, P<0.05) and by DO with BOD (r = -0.810, P <0.01). The water quality parameters were within suitable range for the fish growth and breeding with small fluctuations in different months during the first and second years. Physico-chemical parameters significantly (P<0.01; 0.05) differed between different months. However, no mass mortality of fish was recorded from this site. So, the area selected as fish super zone is fruitful to meet the expected production level of fishes and fish seeds in peripheral areas.

Supplementation of dried bioflocs for red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) was examined during 57 days of feeding trials. Five experimental treatments; T1 (the control; without bioflocs), T2 (4% freeze-dried bioflocs), T3 (16% freeze-dried bioflocs), T4 (4% oven-dried bioflocs), and T5 (16% oven-dried bioflocs) were prepared to examine the water quality, growth performance and body composition of red hybrid tilapia. T2 and T4 treatments resulted in a higher growth rate and survival similar to the control, while T3 and T5 treatments showed the lowest values of growth performance among all treatments. T1 treatment showed the best quality of culture water followed by T2 and T4 treatments, while T3 treatment resulted in poor water quality followed by T5 treatment. Based on these results, the ratios of bioflocs (4% and 16%) had more effect on fish growth and water quality than the drying methods (freeze-drying and oven-drying). The ratio of 4% freeze-dried or oven-dried bioflocs provided higher growth rates and better water quality parameters similar to the control, while the ratio of 16% showed the worst growth performance and water quality in the present study. In addition, body compositions of tilapia fed 4% dried bioflocs showed better nutritional value than tilapia fed 16% dried bioflocs. Protein and energy levels showed an increasing trend with decreasing supplement levels of bioflocs. Moisture content was significantly higher when supplementation of 16% bioflocs was used. Overall, supplementation of 4% freeze-dried or oven-dried bioflocs can be successively included in red hybrid tilapia diets without any effects on growth or body composition and can result in a good quality of culture water for red hybrid tilapia.

The government has launched a program to increase the production of catfish by using biofloc ponds. The biofloc ponds can maintain the quality of water biologically to maximize the growth of fish. However, the level of water quality monitoring is generally only divided into good or bad categories so that it cannot represent the condition of fish growth. Therefore, this study aims to get the level of water quality (0–100 %) using the Mamdani fuzzy inference system (FIS) algorithm based on pH, temperature, and dissolved oxygen (DO). The level of water quality was correlated based on catfish growth conditions. The results showed that the range of values of the water quality level for each condition of catfish growth was 100 % for normal-living fish, 83–99 % for stunted fish growth, and < 83% for threatened fish. The FIS algorithm had 89.92 % of accuracy.

This study investigated the spatial variation in the water quality parameters of Burullus Lake using multivariate analysis and MIKE21 model. The lake was classified into zone-1 at north-east (Z1), zone-2 at south-east (Z2), zone-3 at north-middle (Z3), zone-4 at south-middle (Z4), zone-5 at north-west (Z5), zone-6 at south-west (Z6), and zone-7 at west (Z7). The obtained parameters were temperature 21.5±5.0 ºC, pH 8.2±0.6, dissolved oxygen (DO) 5.9±1.0 mg/L, biological oxygen demand (BOD) 23.9±5.7 mg/L, NH3-N 2.5±0.3 mg/L, NO2-N 1.9±0.3 mg/L, NO3-N 1.2±0.3 mg/L, PO4-P 1.9±0.3 mg/L, SiO4 3.2±0.1 mg/L, Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) 88.2±10.8 µg/L, and salinity 3.2±1.0 g/L. Principal component analysis showed that agricultural drainage water was the key factor influencing the water quality characteristics of Burullus Lake. Water quality index (WQI) varied between “Bad” to “Medium”, suggesting that the lake wasn’t suitable for irrigation and fish growth; however, it was appropriate for some aquatic life. A MIKE21 model was developed to provide a recommendation scenario that could be used to enhance the water quality of Burullus Lake. By improving the water quality of precise drains (namely drains 7 and 8), the WQI at Z4 and Z6 modified from “Bad” to “Medium”. The period required to achieve this self-purification was 5 months.

Partial least squares (PLS) is a multivariate dimension reduction technique which is not based on ordinary regression assumptions. The use of PLS regression in life sciences is still a novel concept despite many scientific applications. This paper analyses the influence of physicochemical in the two fish species, Oreochromis jipe and Oreochromis niloticus to determine the cause for their growth difference in the same culture environment. The graphical display of the multi-parameter analysis was performed using a suite of open access R-software packages. The modeling hypothesis was assessed using experimental data collected for the period of 84 days. The findings revealed that significant linear relationship exists between water quality and mean weight of both O. jipe and O.niloticus fish species. Being a crucial study meant to provide baseline information to asses the aquaculture potential O. jipe, we recommend a further study to be conducted on several other predictor variables that can be measured under controlled aquaculture conditions.

Solid and liquid wastes from feces and fish feed residues can affect water quality, which in turn affect fish physiological processes, behavior, growth and mortality. So it is necessary to have water quality management in the aquaponic system. This study aimed to observe the growth of lettuce and water spinach as biofilters in silver catfish culture (Pangasius sp) using aquaponic system. The study was conducted at the Laboratory of Fisheries, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Universitas Padjadjaran, from March to April 2018. This was an experimental study using Randomized Block Design (RBD) with two treatments and six repetitions to compare between combination of silver catfish and water spinach with silver catfish and lettuce combination. The parameters observed were fish growth, fish survival, increase in  stem length, and increase in the number of leaves. The results show silver catfish and water spinach combination produced the highest crop with a stem length of 38.7 cm and more leaves with an addition of 16 leaves. A higher absolute growth of 7.79 grams fish-1 and 100% survival are also seen in this combination. Furthermore, water spinach is more effective as biofilter for aquaponic systems than lettuce.Limbah padat dan cair dari feses dan sisa pakan ikan dapat mempengaruhi kualitas air, yang selanjutnya memengaruhi proses fisiologis ikan, perilaku, pertumbuhan, dan angka kematian. Sehingga perlu adanya manajemen kualitas air pada sistem akuaponik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati pertumbuhan selada dan kangkung sebagai biofilter pada budidaya ikan lele (Pangasiussp) dengan sistem aquaponik. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Perikanan, Fakultas Perikanan dan Ilmu Kelautan Universitas Padjadjaran dari bulan Maret hingga April 2018. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan dua perlakuan dan enam ulangan untuk membandingkan kombinasi Ikan Patin dan kangkung dengan kombinasi lele dan selada. Parameter yang diamati adalah pertumbuhan ikan, kelangsungan hidup ikan, pertambahan panjang batang, dan pertambahan jumlah daun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Kombinasi lele perak dan kangkung menghasilkan tanaman tertinggi dengan panjang batang 38,7 dan daun lebih banyak dengan penambahan 16 helai daun. Pertumbuhan absolut yang lebih tinggi sebesar 7,79 g ikan-1 dan kelangsungan hidup 100% juga terlihat pada kombinasi ini. Dengan demikan kangkung merupakan biofilter yang lebih efektif untuk aquaponik dibandingkan selada.
