The development of fish growth model uses polynomial growth function. Profit maximization process uses the first derivative of profit equation to culture time equal to zero. This research develop the equations to estimate the culture time to reach the size target of cultured fish. This research model can be applied in the giant gouramy culture. The giant gouramy culture can produce the maximum profit at 324 days with profit of IDR. 7.847.700 per culture cycle. To achieve size target of 500 g per fish, it needs 135 days of culture time.

  • Growth Performance and Survival Rate of Giant Gourami Fingerlings (Osphronemus Goramy Lacepede, 1801) with Potassium Diformate Addition
    Available online at www.worldscientificnews.com WSN 143 (2020) 103-114 EISSN 2392-2192 Growth performance and survival rate of giant gourami fingerlings (Osphronemus goramy Lacepede, 1801) with potassium diformate addition Algi Azmi Nugraha*, Ayi Yustiati, Ibnu Bangkit, Yuli Andriani Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung – Sumedang KM.21 Jatinangor 45363, Indonesia *E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT This research aims to determine the method of adding potassium diformate to commercial feed to increase survival and growth in gourami juvenile. The method used in this research is an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), consists of four treatments and four replications. The treatments used are (A) Without giving Potassium diformate (control), (B) giving potassium diformate by 0.3%, (C) giving potassium diformate by 0.5% and (D) giving potassium diformate by 0.8%. The test fish used was 300 giant gourami with a length of 4-6 cm. The containers used in this research were aquariums with a size of 40 × 30 × 40 cm3 that reared in 16 aquariums. The density of giant gourami fingerlings during the research was 10 fish per aquarium. The rearing period was 40 days. The feed given was 3% of body mass. Water quality parameters (temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen) were observed every 10 days. Other parameters are the daily growth rate, feed efficiency, the survival rate and the acidity of intestinal and stomach which were observed every 10 days. The results showed that the addition of potassium diformate by 0.3% gives the best results of daily growth rate of 1.31%, feeding efficiency of 37.18%, survival rate of 100% and decreased acidity in the intestine and stomach which helps in the process of protein absorption.

Simple Summary: Paradise fish (Macropodus opercularis) has been a favored subject of behavioral research during the last decades of the 20th century. Lately, however, with a massively expanding genetic toolkit and a well annotated, fully sequenced genome, zebrafish (Danio rerio) became a central model of recent behavioral research. But, as the zebrafish behavioral repertoire is less complex than that of the paradise fish, the focus on zebrafish is a compromise. With the advent of novel methodologies, we think it is time to bring back paradise fish and develop it into a modern model of Citation: Rácz, A.; Adorján, G.; behavioral and evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) studies. The first step is to define the Fodor, E.; Sellyei, B.; Tolba, M.; housing and husbandry conditions that can make a paradise fish a relevant and trustworthy model.

This species was previously recorded from the same area over 15 years ago, but was considered extirpated. The rediscovery of a reproducing population of this species highlights the dearth of information available regarding the dozens of non-native fishes in Florida, as well as the need for additional research and monitoring. Key words: canal; croaking gourami; cypress swamp; Florida; Loxahatchee; Osphronemidae; Trichopsis vittata was previously considered extirpated (Shafland Introduction et al. 2008a, b), but is now known to be reproducing in a localised area.

(PALLAS), AND THE PARADISE FISH, MACROPODUS OPERCULARIS (LINNAEUS) Thesis Approved: Q LL . 803908 PREFACE The objectives of the present investigation are to: (1) Describe the motor patterns for seven presumably functional classes of behavior in Trichogaster trichopterus and Macropodus opercularis. (2) Determine the length of reproductive cycles and the characteristic diel rhythinicity of spawning activities. (J) Evaluate the influence of precipitation, barometric pressure, and water temperature on the presence of a nest and the onset of spawning. (~) Determine if activity cycles exist by measuring fluctuations in daily activity. (5) Compare the changes in the composition of behavior during the spawning cycle. Dr. Rudolph J. Miller served as major adviser and was extremely helpful during all phases of the study. Drs. Roy w. Jones, Troy Dorris, L. Herbert Bruneau, and Larry T. Brown served on the advisory committee and edited the manuscript. Donald E. Maritt suggested the method for computer analysis of the data. James Butler was instrumental in writing the computer programs and was helpful in expediting the work in the Computer Science Department. Dr. Dale D.

Small ornamental species are mostly preferable in aquarium industry. BK Mahapatra Gourami is one of the most valuable and popular in small ornamental fish world. In India presently 8 ICAR-Central Institute of indigenous Gourami species are very common and highly demanding. Ctenops nobilis is one of the Fisheries Education, Salt Lake highly demanding and important among the 8 indigenous Gourami species. It is the only known species City, Kolkata, India in its genus. The fish is mainly cold water species. The species is widely distributed but it is a naturally scarce species. As per IUCN Red list, 2010 status the species is assessed as Near Threatened for its J Maity Vidyasagar University, population declines in the wild. Very little data available of the fish resulting problems occur during Midnapore, West Bengal, India maintenance of the fish in aquarium.
