Abstract:
The research was conducted for 40 days from July 9th until August 17th
2012 at Hatchery and Fish Breeding Laboratory, Fisheries and Marine Science
Faculty, Riau University. The aim of the research was to investigate the effect of
different source of pasta feed on growth, survival rate and economic efficiency
sheetfish (Ompok rhadinurus) larvae reared in 21 reciuculated aquarium.
The best treatment was Tubifex sp feed with absolute growth rate 4,08 g,
absolute length 8,44 cm, daily growth rate 15,03%/days and survival rate 77,78%.
The best treatment of pasta meal was treatment P5 (intestines of chiken and
Tubifex sp paste) with absolute growth rate 0,70 g and specific growth rate
10,65%, while absolute growth length was achieved by treatment P4 (fish and
Tubifex sp paste ) 2,93 cm and survival rate was reached by treatment P3
(intestines of chiken paste) 45,56%. The best economic efficiency was treatment
P3 Rp. 82/fish.
