Abstract

Garra rufa fish from the Cyprinidae family are known as "doctor fish" in the context of health tourism due to their use as an alternative medicine to help cure various skin diseases. Garra rufa are benthic fish or freshwater bottom dwellers that naturally live in rocky rivers and feed on microscopic organisms. Garra rufa culture in Indonesia is still limited due to the lack of technical information regarding cultivation aspects such as water quality management, feeding, and maintenance techniques. The purpose of this activity is to determine the Garra rufa culture techniques with different feeding rate on their growth and survival rate. The method applied in this research was a descriptive experimental method using two different percentages of feeding rate, namely 3% and 5% of the fish's body weight, kept in an aquarium for 21 days. The parameters observed were growth and survival rate. The results obtained were Garra rufa maintained with a 5% feeding rate had higher growth but were not more efficient when viewed from their higher FCR values. The survival of both feeding rate treatments was at high figures, namely 87% and 95%.
