Rainbow kurumoi (Melanotaenia parva) merupakan salah satu ikan endemik Indonesia yang berasal dari Danau Kurumoi, Papua. Ikan ini merupakan salah satu komoditas potensial untuk perdagangan ikan hias. Akan tetapi, pemenuhan permintaan ikan rainbow masih mengandalkan hasil tangkapan alam. Rekayasa lingkungan diperlukan untuk meningkatkan produksi ikan rainbow ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui warna wadah yang sesuai untuk optimalisasi pemeliharaan larva ikan rainbow kurumoi. Perlakuan dalam penelitian ini adalah: A) warna wadah merah; B) warna wadah biru; dan C) warna wadah hijau. Larva dipelihara dalam wadah volume 4 L dengan kepadatan 20 ekor/L selama 28 hari. Pakan yang diberikan berupa infusoria, Rotifer, Artemia, dan Moina secara bertahap dengan metode ad libitum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa larva yang diberikan perlakuan beda warna wadah tidak berbeda nyata (P>0,05) terhadap pertumbuhan dan sintasan. Perlakuan A (warna wadah merah) menunjukkan laju pertumbuhan spesifik panjang tertinggi yaitu sebesar 2,2 ± 0,1%/hari; dilanjutkan perlakuan B (2,1 ± 0,7%/hari); dan terakhir perlakun C (1,8 ± 0,7%/hari). Untuk laju pertumbuhan spesifik berat pada perlakuan A sebesar 6,7 ± 1,2%/hari; diikuti perlakuan C (6,4 ± 0,3%/hari) dan perlakuan B (5,5 ± 1,6%/hari). Perkembangan sirip sudah lengkap pada umur 27 hari setelah menetas dengan panjang total tubuh (TL) berkisar antara 8,0-8,6 mm.Rainbow kurumoi (Melanotaenia parva) is one of endemic fish from Kurumoi Lake, Papua, Indonesia. The fish is considered one of the potential commodities in the ornamental fish market. However, to supply the demand for rainbow fish still relies on wild capture. Environmental manipulation is needed to improve the production of rainbow fish. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of tank color on the growth of kurumoi rainbow larvae. The treatments in this study were: A) red; B) blue; and C) green tanks. The larvae were reared in the 4 L volume tanks with a density of 20 ind./L for 28 days. The larvae were fed, in stages, with infusoria, Rotifer, Artemia, and Moina with ad libitum method. The results showed that the red tank (A) had the highest specific growth rate of length (2.2 ± 0.1%/day) followed by blue (B) (2.1 ± 0.7%/day) and green (C) (1.8 ± 0.7%/day) tanks. The red tank (A) had the highest specific weight growth rate (6.9 ± 1.2%/day) followed by the green (C) (6.4 ± 0.3%/day) and the lowest was blue (B) (5.5± 1.6%/day) tanks. The larvae maintained in the red tanks showed brighter color than that of the other two tanks. The fins development has completed on 27 days after hatching (8.0-8.6 mm TL) [ FOR WHICH TANK]. This research indicates that the tank colors do not have any influence on the growth and survival (P>0.05) of rainbow kurumoi larvae.

Abstract Nephrops was found to be of low quality as food for cod. In a laboratory experiment the mean specific growth rate of 1 kg cod was 0.184 and 0.415% d−1 when fed to satiation on Nephrops and capelin, respectively. This large difference in growth rate resulted not only from less intake of Nephrops (1.19 kg cod−1) than capelin (1.55 kg cod−1) but also because more Nephrops (4.6 kg) than capelin (2.2 kg) were required to produce each kilogramme of cod. Higher food conversion ratio was consistent with lower fat content of Nephrops (1.3%) than capelin (9.2%) but the exoskeleton also reduced the digestion rate of Nephrops. In the groups where Nephrops and capelin of equal mean weight were offered simultaneously, 40% of the diet consisted of Nephrops during the first week and 10% during the final seven weeks of the experiment. At the end of the experiment, condition factor, liver index, and gonadosomatic index were significantly lower for cod fed on Nephrops (0.967, 5.7, 7.1, respectively) than for those fed on capelin (1.086, 15.8, 11.2, respectively). These results suggests that predation by cod on Nephrops might be reduced by regular release of capelin or other similar food in the distributional areas of Nephrops.

ABSTRACT    Starved was one effort that can reduce the feed consumption and feed residues without decreasing growth of cultured fish. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of starved periodically to the specific growth rate and feed efficiency of tilapia reared in the pond. The research had been conducted in Laboratorium Budidaya Perairan, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya Unversity on April – Juni 2016. This research method used Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and three replications that was every day feed without starvation (P0), one day feed one day starvation (P1), two days feed one day starvation (P2) and three days feed one day starvation (P3). Parameters of this research are specific growth rate, feed efficiency, survival rate and water quality (temperature, pH, DO, ammonia). The result showed that starved periodically significantly effect to the growth rate and feed efficiency of cultured tilapia in the pond. Treatment P1 (one day feed one day starvation) gave highest specific weight growth rate and specific length growth rate which were 2.32%.day-1 and 1.27%.day-1 then feed efficiency was 84.46%. The highest survival rate occurred in treatment P1 (one day feed one day starvation) 82%. Water quality of this research were temperature 27.0-31.5 oC,  pH 6.8-7.9, dissolved  oxygen 4.53-7.23 mg.L-1, and ammonia 0.01-0.30 mg.L-1. Keywords : Feed Efficiency, Specific growth rate, Starved, , Tilapia.

Abstract A major aim of the aquaculture industry in Norway is to develop sustainable farming of Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua L. A great deal of research, including farming trials and stock enhancement, has been performed on this species in Norway during the past two decades. The success of domestication of a new species depends on the genetic variability of the wild broodstock and the selection of appropriate genotypes for the farming environment. Growth experiments under farmed conditions, including genetic analyses, were started as early as 1983 after the breakthrough of cod juvenile production in mesocosm systems. At later stages (1988 and 1992 year classes), more detailed studies were conducted under farmed conditions. Based on individual tagging and genotyping (blood and white muscle biopsy sampling), estimates of growth performance (specific growth rate, SGR) of the various genotypes within six polymorphic protein loci were obtained. In general, the SGR in the two experiments varied through the year as a function of temperature and body size. In the 1988 year-class experiment, only a few statistically significant differences (ANOVA) were detected among genotypes, measured as mean weight and SGR. The 1992 year-class experiment included two different cod stocks, Northeast Arctic (NE) and Norwegian coastal (NC) cod, which were reared for about two years in the same net pen. Further, during this experiment, only a few genotypes exhibited significantly different growth within the NE group. No consistency was found in the variation with regard to protein loci investigated, growth periods studied, and relationship with temperature variation.

The protein, DNA, and RNA content of larvae maintained at 1.0 plankter/mL increased at the rates of 9.3, 9.9, and 9.8% per day, respectively, for the 5 wk after hatching. Protein reserves of larvae held at 0 or 0.2 plankters/mL were depleted by 45 and 35%, respectively, prior to death 12–13 d after hatching. Starved larvae had similar protein concentrations (percent of dry weight), lower RNA concentrations, and higher DNA concentrations than fed larvae. Larvae held at higher plankton densities had higher RNA–DNA ratios and faster growth rates than larvae held at lower plankton densities. The RNA–DNA ratio was significantly correlated (P < 0.01) with the protein growth rate. The RNA–DNA ratio appears to be a useful index of nutritional status in larval Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and may be useful for determining if cod larvae were in a period of rapid or slow growth at the time of capture. Key words: RNA–DNA ratio, starvation, protein, nucleic acids, growth, larval fish, Atlantic cod

This study supports the hypothesis that well-fed cod (Gadus morhua) seek higher temperatures to increase growth rate, and poorly fed cod select lower temperatures to save metabolic energy. Depth and temperature of free-ranging adult cod (44–79 cm) were studied with data storage tags as part of a ranching project in an Icelandic fjord. Forage fish were regularly provided at four feeding stations where cod formed distinct “herds” (herd cod) that did not mingle much with the rest of the unconditioned cod in the fjord (wild cod). Several parameters (stomach fullness, liver index (fat reserves), condition factor, and growth rate) indicated that food intake was much greater in herd cod than in wild cod. In August, when the thermocline was well established, the herd cod remained in shallow (15–35 m) and warm water (8–10 °C), whereas the wild cod stayed in deep (80–90 m) and cold water (3–4 °C), but occasionally both groups explored depths and temperatures outside their preferred range. After vertical mixing in autumn when thermoregulation was not possible, the depth difference between the two groups decreased significantly.
