Abstract
This research aims to determine the most effective concentration of clove oil and the best period in the transportation of swordtail (Xiphophorius helleri) with the highest survival rate. This research used the factorial randomized block design (FRBD) which consisting of four treatments of concentration (10 x 10-3 mL, 13 x 10-3 mL, 16 x 10-3 mL), three treatments of duration (3 hours, 5 hours, 7 hours), and repeated three times. The measured parameters are induction time, conscious recovery time, and survival rate after transportation. The results showed that the treatment of 10 x 10-3 mL with the duration of 5 hours was an effective treatment with an average induction time of 17 minutes 56 seconds, a conscious recovery time of 7 minutes 37 seconds, the survival rate of 100% at post-transportation and after 7 days of rearing is 83%. Water quality after transportation are temperature (24.6 ℃), DO (14.72 mg / L), pH (6.42) and ammonia (0.0043 mg/L).
