This study aims to determine the effect of rebon shrimp powder on the growth of D. magna. The methods used were media preparation, propagation of D. magna culture, and cultivation of D. magna at various concentrations of shrimp powder. The results showed that the addition of 10 ppm shrimp powder in green water medium could increase the population of D. magna up to 260% in 7 days. The addition of shrimp powder could also increase the protein content of D. magna up to 78, 29%.
