Abstract:

Feed is critical factor which influence successful fish farming. Feed is used by fish for body maintenance, activity, growth and reproduction. The purpose of this study was to find the optimum percentage of leaf meal turi in artificial feed on the growth of black tilapia weighing about 6 g/fish. The treatment in this study was the addition of Turi leaf meal in artificial feed at 0%, 3%, 6%, 9% and 12%. Each treatment was repeated 4 times. Fish stocking density is 1 fish/L water for 40 days in a plastic tub volume of 15 liters and given the aerator. The water temperature is maintained between 25-30oC. Feed is give 3% of the fish biomass. The weight of the fish and the amount of feed that given were measured every 10 days. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and then the differences between treatments were tested using Duncan's Multiple Range Test. The results showed that the protein retention, fat retention and energy retention higest in T3 (Turi leaf meal 9%) and T2 (Turi leaf meal 6%) that isn’t significant different from T0 (Turi leaf meal 0%). Protein retention, fat retention, energy retention of T3 are 27.94%, 24.39% and 11.07%.
