Abstract

The objective of this research was to determine the decline in freshness of skipjack tuna stored at room temperature. Fish freshness testing was carried out using organoleptic tests such as eyes, gills, odor and texture of the fish, as well as counting the number of bacteria taken from the gills of skipjack tuna. Skipjack tuna was taken from 3 different markets in Mataram City. Observations on the fish were carried out twice, the first in the morning after the fish was taken from the market at 09.00 WITA and the second observation at 15.00 WITA. The results of the study showed that in the morning the skipjack tuna was in a condition of declining quality freshness, then during the day the quality of the skipjack tuna decreased further with a condition that was almost rotten. The results of observations of total bacteria also showed that in the morning the total bacteria had passed the predetermined threshold and during the day the number of bacteria increased until it could not be counted.

Abstract

The transgenic GloFish Tetra (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi), engineered to express fluorescent proteins, is increasingly popular in the global ornamental aquaculture industry. However, optimized protocols for its breeding and larval rearing under tropical freshwater conditions remain underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of substrate type and larval stocking density on reproductive performance, larval survival, growth, feed utilization, and fluorescent color intensity in GloFish Tetra. A 3×3 factorial experiment was conducted at a tropical hatchery in Indonesia using three substrate types—no substrate (S0), artificial fiber mat (S1), and natural aquatic vegetation (Hydrilla verticillata, S2)—combined with three stocking densities: 15, 10, and 5 larvae per liter. Key parameters, including fecundity, fertilization rate, hatchability, survival rate (SR), specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR), and color intensity (∆E), were measured and statistically analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. Results demonstrated that the S2-D5 treatment (natural vegetation with low density) significantly improved fecundity (330.2 ± 10.8 eggs), hatchability (82.3 ± 2.7%), SGR (4.30 ± 0.11%/day), and color intensity (∆E = 17.6 ± 1.0), while achieving the lowest FCR (1.31 ± 0.07). In contrast, high-density and substrate-free conditions (S0-D15) yielded the poorest performance across all metrics. These findings underscore the crucial role of environmental enrichment and density management in enhancing both biological and aesthetic traits in GloFish Tetra. This study presents a validated protocol for enhancing hatchery success and improving the ornamental quality of transgenic fish in tropical aquaculture systems.
