Abstract
TAN (Total Ammonia Nitrogen) is the accumulation of nutrient elements needed by plankton to grow in intensive shrimp farming ponds. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship effect of TAN concentration fluctuations on diatom abundance in the intensive shrimp culture cycle. This research was conducted during one intensive shrimp culture cycle at PT. Menjangan Mas Nusantara, Pandeglang, with its research variables is the dominance percentage of plankton abundance and the level of TAN solubility in ponds. The results showed that during the shrimp culture period the abundance of plankton was dominated by predominant diatom, chlorophyceae, and chyanophyceae classes. The percentage of diatom dominance during cultivation has a graph similarity with the level dissolved of TAN fluctuation in the pond. The dissolved of TAN itself is described continue to increase with shrimp farming age. Statically, the relationship between the dissolved effect of TAN concentration on diatom abundance in ponds was modeled by the regression equation y = 2.210 + 32.411 (R2= 0.88; α0.00). The conclusion obtained from the results of this study, the level of dominance by diatom abundance during shrimp culture period is strongly influenced by the fluctuation of TAN concentration as the main nutrient element in ponds with a significance level of 88%.
