Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Pond bottom soil is a very important factor in fish farming, because its good quality greatly affects the quality of pond water and in turn will greatly affect the life (production) of cultured fish. This study aims to determine the effect of successful nursery of climbing perch larvae with various types of soil on survival and growth, and to determine the best type of soil for nursery of Climbing perch larvae on survival and growth. This study used a Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and three replicates x 3, resulting in 12 experimental units. Each experimental unit contained 500 climbing perch larvae, the larvae were allowed to find their own food because the nursery pond already provided Daphnia sp. and other natural food grown during the preparation of the nursery pond. The treatment given was different soil media. Treatments (A) Red and yellow podzolic soil, (B) Peat soil, (C) Swamp soil, (D) Soil from ponds resulting from cultivation activities (Control). The results showed that different soil types did not significantly affect survival but significantly affected the growth of climbing perch larvae. The best type of soil for breeding climb perch larvae is in treatment A with 29.93% survival, 11.89 mm length growth, 0.33gram weight gain.
