Abstract

Aquaculture growth is expected to continue to increase until it, intensification of vanamei shrimp culture is one of the best possibilities for increasing aquaculture production. Limited supply, price, and environmental factors are issues in meeting the needs of fish meals in feed. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of nucleotides (NT, Nucleoforce AquaTM, Bioiberica, SAU, Spain) as feed additives available commercially in optimizing feed formulations from plant-based ingredients in the production of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). A 60-day growth trial was conducted to evaluate five dietary treatments: Basal-1 with 10% fish meal; Basal-2 with 6% fish meal; Diet-1: 10% fish meal+0.1% NT; Diet-2:8% fish meal+0.1% NT and Diet-3: 6% fishmeal+0.1% NT. Results showed that the inclusion of 0.1% nucleotide into the diet formulation has been able to provide good results. Adding nucleotides provides better performance and significantly increases the final biomass, final individual body weight (FBW), feed conversion ratio (FCR), feed protein retention, and average daily growth (ADG) (P<0.05) and thermal growth coefficient (TGC). The best results is Diet-1 (10% FMNT treatment) with the best protein content of 37.06% ± 0.15, showed the best performance of growth parameters (ADG, FBW, SR, TGC, PER, and RP) and lowest FCR. The addition of 0.1% nucleotide proves that the functional and nutritional properties of NT have many advantages in increasing the growth rate and more efficient in protein absorption. Therefore, 0.1% NT can be recommended as a supplement in shrimp feed.

Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate the development of Panulirus ornatus and P. homarus puerulus larvae into juveniles in a captive environment. Pueruli were collected from the local fishermen and transported by air to the research facilities. Puerulus of each species were stocked into 3 floating plastic compartments (5 cm × 12 cm × 17 cm) with sufficient holes, aeration, and a filtration system until reached their first moulting. Results indicated that both puerulus species were completely moulted after 6 days of stocking with the survival rate of 100% and 93.3%. Moulting began on Day 5 for P. ornatus and Day 4 for P. homarus pueruli. The weight of P. ornatus increased significantly after the metamorphosis (P<0.05). The initial and final weights of P. ornatus were significantly greater than P. homarus (P<0.05). In addition, the total and carapace lengths of both species were significantly increased (P<0.05). Morphological observations indicated that there was a significant distinguishing feature such as the antenae form and body pattern colour of both species. In conclusion, proper handling of the pueruli according to each species is required to preserve the quality in order to achieve greater success in metamorphosis into juveniles.

Abstract

Seaweeds are becoming vital feed materials due to their high concentration of nutrients and active secondary metabolites. In this context, the brown seaweed Sargassum wightii extract (SWE) was included in Clarias gariepinus diets to investigate its effects on growth rate, nutrient utilization, haemato-biochemical indices, antioxidant activities and immune responses. Four experimental diets with four different levels (control- 0 %, 0.25 %, 0.5 %, and 1.0 %) of SWE were fed to four triplicate groups of C. gariepinus juvenile (mean initial weight 14.50 ± 0.00 g) for 28 days. At the end of the feeding trial, there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the growth performance of fish groups fed SWE and the control group. However, there were significant differences (p<0.05) in feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio between the control and SWE groups. Erythrocytes, leukocytes, haemoglobin, lymphocytes, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in fish fed SWE supplemented diets were significantly higher (p<0.05) than control. Notably, the liver function enzyme- Alkaline phosphatase was significantly higher (p<0.05) in fish fed SWE diets when compared to the control group. There was significant variation (p<0.05) in hepatic antioxidant enzymes activities across all diets. It was also observed that TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-β increased significantly in the liver of C. gariepinus fed SWE supplemented diets compared to control. Therefore, these results suggest that inclusion of S. wightii extract in the fish diet, although did not enhance growth performance, could improve the immune status and reduced oxidative stress of C. gariepinus.

Abstract

Rotation between rice and shrimp farming by way of filter ponds and diversification of farm activities was studied with the aims of testing the efficiency of filter ponds and evaluating the combination of incorporating the growing of upland-crops on dikes of rice fields. Three groups of farmers participated in study trials which were the pilot group used a filter pond and applied new methods, the control group had a filter pond and applied the recommended new methods, and the normal practice (control) group not having a filter pond. Results showed that the rice-shrimp farming system using a filter pond improved water quality (pH, alkalinity and salinity) and reduced input costs. Growing upland crops on the dikes had a high financial return; though for both vegetables and the grass for the dairy cows will strongly depend on the market. On one hectare of land, farmers using a filter pond for rice-shrimp farming combined with upland-crops had a higher economic return than the traditional rice-shrimp farming system (2,812 compared with 854 USD/ha/year). However, implementing this model requires farmers to build filter ponds to aid freshwater storage, proper management skills and family labour resources. Diversification of farm activities such as integrated rice-shrimp culture may be a strategy for farmers for adapting to the impacts of climate change such as extreme weather events, less rain and saltwater intrusion.

Abstract

[Land Suitability Modeling for Fishery Resource Enhancement in the Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatera, Indonesia: GIS and Multi-Criteria Evaluation Approaches] Land suitability analysis is required for successful aquaculture planning. Due to the geographical setting of the Padang Pariaman Regency, aquaculture development is likely hindered by the vulnerable coastal area. Suitability assessment of aquaculture projects is crucial to specify the best method espousing sustainable development in the study area. This study aims to select the most proper location to be developed as a center of shrimp aquaculture in the Padang Pariaman Regency. This study employed the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) approaches. This study combined the GIS-based analysis, AHP, and MCDM to yield the most proper location for aquaculture development. The three sub-models (engineering, water quality, and infrastructure) are overlaid using the weighted linear combination (WLC) technique. The infrastructure sub-model resulted in the highest coverage of highly suitable criteria with 61.74%. By contrast, the highest percentage of the unsuitable category was found in the water quality sub-model with 17.67%. Of particular concern, 87.5 % of the study area is suitable for aquaculture development. The remaining region is categorized as highly suitable with 11.93%, found in the eastern Padang Pariaman. Thus, we conclude that developing shrimp aquaculture in the study area is possible. Still, the future environmental impacts should be considered beforehand.

Abstract

The main objective of this research is to study the possibility of using endophytic bacteria isolated from some medicinal plants (onion, Allium cepa, brassicales, Salvadora persica, and fenugreek, Trigonella foenum-graecum) as probiotics for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Fish growth was evaluated using fish growth performance indices and approximate fish composition. Fish health was assessed by quantifying some biochemical compounds in fish serum, and at the end of the experiment, a challenge test was performed with Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The use of endophytic bacteria increased all indicators of growth performance compared to the control group. Endophytic bacteria of Fenugreek recorded higher growth performance than other plants. Moreover, in all treatments except for onion, bacteria mixed with feed significantly increased in fish growth performance compared to bacteria added to rearing water. Endophytic bacteria of onion and fenugreek recorded higher concentrations of protein in muscles than the control group by 56 and 49%, respectively. Furthermore, 88, 75 and 63% of the treatments recorded a decrease in albumin, ALT and AST concentration compared to the control group. Although the concentration of urea in the blood was higher than the control group by about 7.4 to 44.3%, but the challenge test showed that all treatments had a 20% mortality rate compared to the control group (10%). As a result, the endophytic bacteria of onion, brassicales and fenugreek can be used as probiotics for Nile tilapia. Further study is needed to elucidate the optimal bacterial concentration necessary for tilapia growth.

Abstract

The production of male guppies is more desirable due to it higher selling value than females. One way to produce male guppies is change it sex, namely masculinization which can be enhanced through the addition of coconut water, with high potassium level. Potassium can convert all cholesterol in the larvae into pregnenolone, which functions to convert estrogen into progesterone and produces testosterone. Hormones required in sex change can be supplemented by the oral method through feed. The research, which was conducted from November 2022 - March 2023, was divided into two stages, first is to determine the dosage of coconut water and the second one is to determine the appropriate coconut water sterilization method. Each stage used a completely randomized design with four treatments and four replicates. Doses of coconut water added to feed were 0.06 ml/g feed, 0.09 ml/g feed, 0.12 ml/g feed, and 0.15 ml/g feed. The sterilization methods conduct in this research are using UV light, autoclave, and ozone. Observation of male genitalia was done after 45 days by observing the urogenital organs and confirmed by hematoxylin-eosin histological staining after 52 and 59 days. The highest percentage of male guppies at 71.75% was produced by the dose of 0.15 ml/g feed, while sterilization treatment produces lower male percentage than control (p<0.05).  No significant difference in fish survival was obtained. Fish survival ranges from 88% - 93%. Thus, the addition of 0.15 ml of coconut water to feed is the most effective treatment in producing male guppies.

Abstract

Curcuma spp. is a phytobiotic with potential application in fish farming. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Curcuma zedoaria, Curcuma aeruginosa and Curcuma mangga extracts in striped catfish infected with Aeromonas hydrophila. The study used a complete randomized design (CRD) consisting of six treatments: KN (negative control), KP (positive control, fish infected without treatment), PE (C. zedoaria extract 6.25 g kg-1), HE (C. aeruginosa extract 6.25 g kg-1), ME (C. mangga extract 6.25 g kg-1) and KE (combination of C. zedoaria extract 2.1 g kg-1 + C. aeruginosa extract 2.1 g kg-1 + C. mangga extract 2.1 g kg-1). A total of 360 striped catfish, 10 ± 0.5 cm were kept in 18 aquariums measuring 50 × 40 × 35 cm3 and fed the treatment for 30 days. The challenge test was conducted on day 31 by injecting A. hydrophila suspension (106 colony-forming units (CFU) mL-1) intramuscularly into fish. The results showed that the treatment administered were able to stimulate the expression of interleukin-1â, interferon-ã 2a, 2b genes, increase the number of red and white blood cells, hematocrit, hemoglobin, phagocytosis activity, respiratory burst, reduce the population of A. hydrophila in the intestine, and reduce tissue damage in striped catfish. Striped catfish treated with the extracts showed significantly higher survival rates (p<0.05) compared to the positive control group. The survival rates were: KN (100.00 %), KP (53.33%), PE (93.33 %), HE (91.67 %), ME (93.33 %), and KE (88.33 %). In conclusion, the treatment administered were able to enhance the immune response and resistance of striped catfish infected with A. hydrophila.

Abstract

Biofouling attached to floating net cages and other aquaculture containers is an obstacle in aquaculture. The presence of biofouling can reduce the quality of the environment and interfere with the health of farmed animals, resulting in large losses. This study assessed the anti-biofouling activity of the Callyspongia pseudoreticulata extract component (EMCp) against the Barnacle Balanus amphitrite. For this purpose, C. pseudoreticulata was extracted with 80% methanol using the maceration method at <40°C to obtain EMCp. B. amphitrite was cultured in an aquarium at 25 ppt. The anti-biofouling activity of EMCp was tested against B. amphitrite larvae using asbestos plates. The study used a Complete Randomized Design with three treatments, namely, A) asbestos plate smeared with EMCp + varnish, B) asbestos plate smeared with varnish, and C) asbestos plate not smeared with EMCp and varnish (control). EMCp toxicity test on the larvae used clear bottles, and the adhesion test using 24-well polystyrene plates. Toxicity observations were done after 24 hours, and the number of dead larvae was calculated. The attachment of the larvae was calculated under a microscope at 10× magnification. Identification of groups of chemical compounds using a thin-layer chromatography chromatogram detected under UV lamps and spraying of reagents. The study found that EMCp effectively inhibited the attachment and growth of B. amphitrites with the LC50 of 150 mg/L. Studies of chemical constituents identified various compounds in the extract, including alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids. These results suggest that C. pseudoreticulata has potential as a natural alternative to chemical-based antifouling agents.

Abstract

Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) cultivation in Indonesia has been carried out since the early 2000s with satisfactory results. This shrimp is able to replace the previously cultivated black tiger (Penaeus monodon), which experienced cultivation failure due to disease attacks. The pond construction used includes an earthen pond, a lining pond, and a concrete pond, which are equipped with paddlewheels as a source of dissolved oxygen. Pacific white shrimp are mostly cultivated using semi-intensive, intensive, and super-intensive systems, depending on technological input and stocking density. Semi-intensive stocking density is around 50 PL/m2, intensive 100 PL/m2, and super-intensive 500 PL/m2, with productivity of 10 tons/ha, 15 tons/ha, and 42 tons/ha, respectively. There are two types of harvests carried out by farmers in Indonesia, namely partial harvests and total harvests. The main aim of partial harvest is to reduce excessive shrimp biomass, as indicated by a decrease in dissolved oxygen content. Problems that often arise during the cultivation process are disease attacks such as white spots and infectious myonecrosis (IMN) caused by viruses, White Feces Syndrome (WFS)  and Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND) caused by Vibrio parahaemolitycus and Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP). To increase the productivity of whiteleg shrimp cultivation, the advice given is to minimize disease attacks, namely by installing several biosecurity devices, such as bird scaring devices (BSD), crab protection devices (CPD), and water filtration. In addition, the application of a recirculation aquaculture system, biofloc technology, aquamimicry and whiteleg shrimp cultivation at low salinity (inland) can be an alternative cultivation in the future.
