| description | In this study, Integrated Aquaculture system was applied. As it a first trial application of
Integrated Aquaculture System in open sea using Asian sea bass, this lead to objective of
this study which are to determine the possibilities of using Integrated Aquaculture
System on survival and growth of Asian sea bass cultured with sea cucumber and
seaweed. This study was conducted near University Malaysia Sabah jetty. There were
two system which are control consist of Asian sea bass and second system are integrated
system which culture Asian sea bass, sea cucumber and seaweed and the duration of this
study was 4 weeks. The survival of Asian seabass is same for both systems (98%).
While for the weight gain and specific growth rate Asian sea bass shows numerically high
in integrated system (55.52 g and 1.26%day-l) and there are no Significance
differences between both systems. For sea cucumber the survival rate shows (40%) and
show negative weight gain (-0.006%) which means there are no growth for them.
Besides that, seaweed shows increasing in total biomass (0.25 g). In this study also
water nutrient test were conducted which show ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. The level
of ammonia, nitrite and nitrate are still low which is not harmful to Asian sea bass and
sea cucumber «0.5 mg/L, <4.0 mg/L, <200 mg/L). In 4 weeks of experiment Asian
sea bass show same growth and survival. At the same time, seaweed can be cultured but
not sea cucumber. There are possibilities using this Integrated Aquaculture System in
future to culture Asian sea bass with seaweeds. While, sea cucumber are not suitable for
open cage culture because absence of substrate. This system still can be used but need
to be modified in such a way that the sea cucumbers are provided with substrate. The
usage of Integrated Aquaculture System can gain more profit. |
