Fulfill needs of Siamese gourami still rely on the catch from nature, so the population in nature has become decreased. The increase of Siamese gourami fish production from culture is still constrained by the survival rate and slow growth rate in the seed phase. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of Siamese gourami stocking density on the application of optimum temperature and salinity to growth performance for optimization of production capacity. Application of optimum temperature and salinity refers to the results of previous research, i.e., temperature of 28 °C and salinity 3 ‰. Siamese gourami seed with length of 2.96 ± 0.42 cm and weight of 5.27 ± 0.10 g used in the research. The experimental design used completely randomized design with four treatments, i.e. 1 fish L-1, 2 fish L-1, 3 fish L-1 and 4 fish L-1. The results showed that there were an effect of different stocking density on absolute growth weight and length, survival rate, specific growth rate and productivity. This is shown in the C treatment which growth was 4.95 ± 0.037 g, length 3.51 ± 0.01 cm, survival rate 93.47%, specific growth rate 1.22% and fish productivity of 625.76 g.

This research was conducted to determine the effect of giving different lime on the survival rate and growth of snack head seeds. This writing uses a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 3 replications. The hypothesis being tested was that the application of the limed lime had no significant effect on survival rate, the growth of snack head seed and the specific growth rate and lime administration differed significantly in feed conversion. The study was conducted at the Wet Aquaculture Laboratory, Palangka Raya University starting from February 3 - March 3, 2020. The results showed that the administration of different lime had no significant effect on survival rate, growth and specific growth rates but had a significant effect on feed conversion. The best survival rate of snack head seeds is in treatment D (250 g) that is equal to 57.73%, the best weight growth is in treatment C (200 G) that is equal to 3.16 grams, the best length growth is in treatment D (250 g) that is 2.57 cm, the best specific growth rate is in treatment D (250 g) which is 2.92% / day, and the best feed conversion value is in treatment D (250 g) which is 1.47%. Water quality such as temperature, acidity (pH) and dissolved oxygen (DO) are still in the normal range.

Ikan semah (Tor douronensis) termasuk salah satu spesies dari genus Tor yang memiliki nilai ekonomis tinggi. Untuk meningkatkan produktivitas, informasi pertumbuhan benih yang dipelihara pada sistem budidaya karamba jaring apung (KJA) perlu dilakukan karena ikan semah umumnya dibudidayakan pada kolam dengan air yang jernih. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan informasi laju pertumbuhan benih ikan semah generasi pertama dengan perlakuan padat tebar yang berbeda pada sistem pemeliharaan KJA. Percobaan dilakukan di Waduk Cirata, Cianjur, Jawa Barat selama lima bulan. Ikan uji (panjang total: 7-8 cm; bobot: 5-6 g) dipelihara di KJA (padat tebar 50, 75, dan 100 ekor/m3 dengan tiga kali ulangan). Pakan apung komersial dengan kadar protein 40% diberikan sebesar 6% per biomassa yang diberikan dua kali sehari. Parameter yang diamati yaitu pertumbuhan bobot mutlak, sintasan, laju pertumbuhan spesifik (SGR), dan biomassa. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan padat tebar 50 ekor/m3 menghasilkan pertumbuhan terbaik dengan bobot akhir 15,89 ± 1,43 g; pertambahan mutlak 10,48 ± 1,41 g; sintasan 94,67 ± 4,6%; dan SGR 0,75 ± 0,04%. Dari hasil penelitian ini, padat tebar 50 ekor/m3 merupakan kondisi yang terbaik untuk pemeliharaan benih ikan semah di KJA. Hasil penelitian ini dapat dijadikan informasi awal tentang potensi budidaya ikan semah dengan sistem budidaya KJA perlu dikembangkan di masa yang akan datang.Semah mahseer (Tor douronensis) is a species from the genus Tor and highly valued in local and national markets. Nevertheless, the fish production from net cage is currently limited. In order to increase its productivity, research on the growth of semah mahseer fingerlings reared in floating net cage systems needs to be carried out as this species is predominantly cultured in the clean water ponds. This study was conducted to obtain information on the growth performance of the first generation of semah mahseer fingerlings reared with different stocking densities in a floating net cage system. The experiment was carried out in the floating net cage located at Cirata Reservoir, Cianjur, West Java, for five months. Fingerlings (total length: 7-8 cm; body weight: 5-6 g) were reared in the floating net cage (stocking density of 50, 75, and 100 ind./m3 with three replications). The fish were fed with a commercial diet (protein content of 40%) given at 6% of biomass twice a day. The parameters observed included weight gain, survival rate, specific growth rate (SGR), and biomass. The results showed that the stocking density of 50 ind./m3 had the best performance in terms of final weight of 15.89 ± 1.43 g, weight gain of 10.48 ± 1.41 g, survival rate of 94.67 ± 4.6%, and specific growth rate of 0.75 ± 0.04%. Based to the results of this study, the stocking density of 50 ind./m3 is the best condition for rearing semah mahseer fingerlings in floating net cages. The findings of this research can be used as the basic information for future aquaculture development of semah mahseer in net cages.

Duplicate groups of seawater-adapted 70-g all-female chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were held in flowing seawater (24–29‰; 8–12 °C) corresponding to swimming speeds (SS) of 0.5, 1.0, or 1.5 body lengths (bl)/s for 212 d. Fish were fed either a maximum satiating ration of 75% of maximum ration at each SS. Fish grew four- to fivefold during the study, but neither mean body weight, fork length, specific growth rate, condition factor, nor muscle morphometry was influenced by average SS. However, the SS of individually marked fish were negatively correlated with specific growth rate. At both rations, higher SS increased the internal tissue-carcass ratio, hepatosomatic index, and total body protein. More food was ingested at higher SS resulting in reduced feed efficiency. SS did not alter the plasma L-thyroxine (T4) concentration, but increased the plasma 3,5,3′-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) concentration and T3/T4 ratio. In part, this may reflect the greater food intake at higher SS. The reduced ration depressed all aspects of growth and at 212 d tended to depress both plasma T4 and T3, but did not alter feed efficiency. We conclude that exercise over the range of 0.5–1.5 bl/s does not enhance growth, but reduces feed efficiency in seawater-adapted chinook salmon.

Measurement Results

In intensive aquaculture farming activities will generate solid waste and liquid waste that comes from feces and leftover fish feed. The waste accumulation can lead to deterioration of water quality that affects the physiological processes, behavior, growth, and mortality of fish. Technological innovation is needed for the management of water quality and increase productivity as a result of shrinkage of cultivated land. One of the technological innovations that can be applied, namely the incorporation of fish farming with crops through Aquaponics system. This study aims to determine the effects of water spinach optimum density to absorb waste ammonia (NH3), nitrate (NO3) and nitrite (NO2) optimally to increase the survival rate and growth rate of african catfish (Clarias sp.) intensive As well as to see its effect on conversion rates and feed efficiency with aquaponics system. The method used is the experimental method. The experimental research is used to determine the effect of certain variable towards a group under controlled conditions. The results of measurements of ammonia levels during P0 showed that the treatment significantly different (p <0.05) with treatment P1; P2; and P3. P3 treatment with water spinach number 40 stems provide maximum results in lowering the concentration of ammonia compared with treatment P0 (without spinach), P1 (20 water spinach), and P2 (30 water spinach). The measurement results nitrite levels during the observation showed that all treatments there were no significant differences (p> 0.05). The measurement results also showed that the nitrate content whole of observation results showed that all treatments there were no significant differences (p> 0.05). The best feed conversion ratio was found in P3 treatment of 1.08. The best feed efficiency was found in P3 treatment 92,25%. The highest survival rate was found in P3 treatment (88.69%) in maintenance medium and lowest survival rate was in P0 treatment (26,71%) without water spinach  (control). The highest specific growth rate was found in P3 treatment (1.15%), while the lowest specific growth rate was in treatment P0 (0.79%).Results of water quality measurement supporting all treatments decreased and increased. The supporting water quality are temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen. The decrease and increase in support water quality is caused by environmental factors such as weather. Other parameters were observed in addition to supporting the water quality is water spinach plant growth. Value growth water spinach is best found in treatment P3. In the treatment P3 water spinach growth rose 5.14 cm with an initial size of 10.92 into 16.06.
