Abstract
Oysters belong to the bivalve class, which has a soft body and is protected by two hard shells. Living in groups and sticking together on various substrates. Oysters have high nutritional content so that the need for oysters continues to increase unbalanced with the availability of oysters in the habitat. The study aimed to see the pattern of growth of various culture media of oysters. The research was carried out from May until June 2019. Samples were taken in three water areas based on cultivation media with a purposive sampling technique when the water receded, and data analysis was carried out in the Laboratory. Oysters from cultivation media showed the growth pattern (b = 0.47 to 0.65) with a coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.25 to 0.83) while oysters without cultivation media showed growth pattern (b = 0.44 to 0.51) with the coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.19 to 0.27) and all show allometric negative growth patterns (b <3). The results of the value of b and the coefficient of determination obtained in the culture media are greater than the values obtained without the cultivation media, which shows that the use of cultivation media is very effective in oyster production.
Highlights
Oysters as one of the high quality aquatic food ingredients so that the need for oysters for the community continues to increase which is not in accordance with the availability of oysters in the habitat [1]
This study aims to determine the pattern of oyster growth in the waters of Banda Aceh City
The growth patterns varied between cultivation media and natural habitats
Summary
Oysters as one of the high quality aquatic food ingredients so that the need for oysters for the community continues to increase which is not in accordance with the availability of oysters in the habitat [1]. This causes the harvesting process in large capacity and does not follow a decent harvest size so that the availability of oysters in the waters area continues to be threatened. Each oyster is found in the waters of the city of Banda Aceh, allegedly there are varied growth patterns. An important aspect of this research is to assess the effectiveness of the production of oysters produced
