Abstract

This study was conducted to scientifically evaluate the effect of vitamin C supplementation in commercial feed on the growth performance and survival rate of cantang grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × E. lanceolatus), a high-value aquaculture commodity in Indonesia. The experimental design employed was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three treatments: commercial feed without vitamin C (control), feed supplemented with 20,000 ppm of vitamin C, and feed supplemented with 40,000 ppm of vitamin C, each with three replicates. The key parameters observed included weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR), and survival rate (SR) of the fish during a 30-day rearing period. The results revealed that the addition of vitamin C to the commercial feed had a statistically significant effect on both weight gain and SGR (p < 0.05), where the 40,000 ppm treatment produced the highest mean weight gain (7.12 grams) and SGR value (0.0765%). Although survival rate did not differ significantly among treatments (p > 0.05), the group receiving 40,000 ppm of vitamin C still achieved the highest survival rate of 100%. Water quality parameters, including temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and ammonia, remained within optimal ranges throughout the experiment in accordance with marine aquaculture standards. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that vitamin C supplementation, particularly at a concentration of 40,000 ppm, is highly effective in promoting growth performance and maintaining high survival rates of cantang grouper under controlled aquaculture conditions.

Abstract

Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) aquaculture has high economic value and rapid growth; however, the high cost of commercial feed necessitates the use of more economical and nutritionally adequate alternative feed ingredients, such as fermented papaya leaves (Carica papaya). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different fermentation durations of papaya leaves in commercial feed on the growth and survival rate of tilapia and to determine the optimal fermentation time. This study employed an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of four treatments and three replications: treatment A (control without fermentation), treatment B (3 days fermentation), treatment C (5 days fermentation), and treatment D (7 days fermentation). Tilapia fingerlings measuring ±5–7 cm with an initial weight of ±3–4 g were reared for 30 days at a stocking density of 20 fish per tank. The observed parameters included weight gain and survival rate, while the water quality parameters measured were temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), and ammonia. The data were analyzed using a One-Way ANOVA test followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. The results showed that the addition of fermented papaya leaves had a significant effect (P < 0.05) on the weight gain of tilapia, but no significant effect (P > 0.05) on the survival rate. The best treatment was obtained at 7 days of fermentation, with an average weight gain of 19.53 g and a survival rate of 100%. Therefore, a fermentation duration of 7 days for papaya leaves in commercial feed is considered the most optimal time to enhance the growth of tilapia without affecting their survival rate.
