Enriching Probiotics of Feed Using Curcuma to Increase Growth Rates of Tilapia Seeds (Oreochromis niloticus)

Abstract

Tilapia fish (Oreochromis niloticus) is a freshwater fish commodity widely cultivated since it is both easily cultivated and in demand by consumers. The growth of tilapia is influenced by the quality of the feed. Probiotics and herbal ingredients can optimize fish growth. One example of probiotics and herbal ingredients is PHL Pro and curcuma. This study aims to determine the effect of probiotics dose of the feed on the growth rates of tilapia seeds. This research was conducted in Pangandaran Marine and Fisheries Polytechnic Campus. The study was carried out using 4 treatments and 3 replications, namely Control or without the addition of probiotics, (P1) 150ml/kg feed, (P2) 200 ml/kg feed, (P3) 250 ml/kg feed. Fish growth measured by the researchers was the average weight and total length of fish every 7 days. Based on observations of the data, it can be concluded that the provision of probiotics in the feed affected the growth rate and total length of tilapia. The optimal dose of probiotics was 150 ml/kg of feed. Based on the study results, the best treatment was P1.

Pengaruh Probiotik Plus Herbal Terhadap Retensi Protein dan Retensi Lemak Benih Ikan Tawes (Barbonymus Gonionotus)

“…Proses pencampuran probiotik dari tiap tepung herbal pada pakan komersil (Pitoyo et al, 2021) sesuai dengan dosis perlakuan yaitu; Pertama menyiapkan bahan-bahan untuk proses pencampuran probiotik dari tiap tepung herbal pada pakan komersil sesuai dengan dosis perlakuan yaitu : PAU0: Probiotik (2 gram / 250 gram pakan), PBU1: Probiotik (2 gram / 250 gram pakan dengan tambahan tepung kunyit 2 gram), PCU2 : Probiotik (2 gram / 250 gram pakan dengan tambahan tepung temulawak 2 gram), PDU3 : Probiotik (2 gram / 250 gram pakan dengan tambahan tepung kencur 2 gram). Kemudian semua bahan penyusun pakan ikan dicampur ke dalam wadah dengan tambahan larutan progol sebanyak 5 ml / 250 gram pakan dan diaduk sampai merata.…”

Domestication of Belontia Hasselti with Different Densities Using Zeolite Filter Media in Recirculation System

“…According to Mukti et al (2021), generally good feed efficiency was greater than 50%. A high density value of feed efficiency will result in high absolute weight and absolute length growth because fish utilize nutrients from the feed given during rearing (Pietoyo et al, 2021;Gazali et al, 2023). The increase in stocking density will cause stress which induces high blood glucose B. hasselti.…”
