Beong are one of endogenous fish in Indonesia and still rely on catches from nature. The level of growth and survival rate in culture of beong is still low, so it is necessary to do cultivation efforts for conservation of beong, so that the beong can be cultivated intensively. One effort that can be do is biological manipulation in the form of stocking density. This study aims to determine the effect of shocking density on growth and survival rate and find out the best amount too. The study was conducted in April-May 2018 at UPT BBI Sawangan, Magelang, Central Java. The method used in this study was experiment method and Completely Randomized Design (CRD) for 4 treatments, 3 replicates with stocking dencities of A (10 fish/m2), B (30 fish/m2), C (50 fish/m2)and D (70 fish/m2). The results showed that different stocking densities gave a significant effect (Sig.> 0.05) on TKP, FCR, SGR and SR. This is allegedly due to feed competition, space competition and cannibalism in Beong fish. Treatment B gave the best results at TKP, FCR, SGR and SR with a value of 1.36 ± 0.01 gr / individual, 1.15 ± 0.11, 4.58 ± 0.22% / day and 83.33 ± 3,34%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
