Environmental condition to fish culture using floating cage in Manalu Cluster, Sangihe Islands Regency

Title (Bahasa Indonesia): Kondisi lingkungan perairan untuk budi daya ikan dengan sistem karamba jaring apung di Perairan Klaster Manalu, Kabupaten Kepulauan Sangihe Manalu and it surroundings cluster is a zone which is designatedas a development center for agropolitan and minapolitan region and as a marine and coastal aquaculture center which include Manalu Bay, South Tabukan sub-district, South East Tabukan sub-district, and Center Tabukan sub-district. Hangke,Sensahang/Ensahange, Talawe, Kalagheng, Mutung and Bembiha areasareincluded inthis cluster, although noresearch has been conducted to studythis area. Datacollected includewater quality parameters, data about convenience and risk factor. Data about convenience and risk factorwas collected by interview with persons who consider as those who know best about the site and do marine culture for living. Water quality parameters was collected by doing measurementonsalinity, temperature, disolved oxygen, visibility, pH, water depth and current velocity in 4 representative areas.The collected data showthat convenience factor was high and risk factor waslow. Due to lowwater depth and lowvisibility, area 1and 2 was not recomended for futher development for marine culture with floating cage construction. Area 3 and 4 can be recomended for futher development because data result show good value.Klaster Manalu dan sekitarnya merupakan zona yang diperuntukkan untuk pusat pengembangan kawasan agropolitan dan minapolitan, dan pusat budi daya pantai dan laut di mana meliputi Teluk Manalu, Kecamatan Tabukan Selatan, Kecamatan Tabukan Timur, dan Kecamatan Tabukan Tengah. Perairan Hangke, Sensahang/Ensahange, Talawe, Kalagheng, Mutung, dan Bembiha masuk dalam klaster ini, meskipun belum ada penelitian dilakukan untuk mengkaji hal tersebut. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi parameter kualitas air, faktor kenyamanan, dan faktor risiko. Data faktor kenyamanan dan risiko dikumpulkan menggunakan teknik wawancara kepada masyarakat, yang mengetahui tentang keberadaan daerah tersebut. Parameter kualitas air dikumpulkan dengan cara melakukan pengukuran terhadap salinitas, suhu, oksigen terlarut, kecerahan, pH, kedalaman, dan kecepatan arus pada 4 lokasi yang dipilih. Hasil analisis menunjukkan, bahwa faktor kenyamanan berada pada tingkatan tinggi dan faktor risiko berapa pada tingkatan rendah. Dalam hal kondisi perairan, karena kedalaman dan kecerahan rendah pada Lokasi 1 dan 2, maka lokasi tersebut tidak dianjurkan untuk dilakukan pengembangan budi daya laut menggunakan kurungan jaring apung (KJA). Lokasi 3 dan 4 dapat dianjurkan untuk dilakukan pengembangan karena hasil pengamatan menunjukkan nilai yang “baik”.

Karakterisasi lingkungan perairan Teluk Talengen Kabupaten Kepulauan Sangihe sebagai kawasan budidaya rumput laut Kappaphycus alvarezii

This paper was the result of a feasibility analysis of Talengen Bay Waters for aquaculture of Kappaphycus alvarezii. Feasibility analysis of water was based on the environmental data and water quality parameters of Talengen Bay. One mistake in the development of aquaculture is environmentally unsuitable. In order to develop aquaculture properly, appropriate water conditions data were required. Suitable aquatic environments are required by organisms for their survival because they are related to the patterns and behavior of the biota. In connection with the problems of mariculture at Talengen Bay, several efforts were required to overcome them. One of the efforts was made through this study that was assessment of appropriate location for the cultivation of seaweed. Talengen Gulf was located in in the territory of Kampung Talengen and Kampung Bunga Lawang, Central District of Tabukan, Sangihe Islands Regency, North Sulawesi. Laboratory analysis was conducted at the Laboratory of Industrial Baristand Manado. Determination of research stations done intentionally (purposive sampling). Based on the results obtained it could then be concluded that the condition of the aquatic environment and water quality parameters in the Talengen Bay were categorized as suitable for seaweed cultivation K. alvarezii. Phosphate, nitrate, Total Suspended Solid data were needed to be considered. Keywords: Environmental characteristics, seaweed, aquaculture; Kappaphycus alvarezii

The growth of Kappaphycus alvarezii under different depth and initial weight in Talengen waters, Sangihe Islands Regency

The effect of depth and weight differences on early stage of seaweed growth Kappaphycus alvarezi was studied. This Research was conducted for over 42 days, from April to May 2013 in Talengen Waters, Regency Sangihe Islands, North Sulawesi. Experiment designed used was 4 x 3 factorial experiment in a completely randomized design, so there were two factors namely depth and weight. The depth factor (D) consisted of four levels and initial weight (W) consisted of three levels, thus there were 12 treatment combination: D1W1 (25 cm, 75 g), D1W2 (25 cm, 100 g), D1W3 (25 cm, 125 g), D2W1 (75 cm, 75 g), D2W2 (75 cm, 100 g), D2W3 (75 cm, 125 g), D3W1 (125 cm, 75 g), D3W2 (125 cm, 100 g), D3W3 ( 125 cm, 125 g), D4W1 (175 cm, 75 g), D4W2 (175 cm, 100 g), and D4W3 (175 cm, 125 g). Data collected were analyzed statistically using the statistical program JMP (SAS Institute). Statistical analysis showed there was a significant differences in relative growth of seaweed K. alvarezii (P> F.0003 <.01).The best relative growth of seaweed K. alvarezzi was achieved in treatment combination D1W1 (25 cm, 75 gr) as much as 302.89%.

Pertumbuhan ikan kuwe putih Caranx sexfasciatus di karamba jaring apung yang diberi pakan rucah dengan bahan tambahan yang berbeda

The use of trash fish ( Treatment A ), trash fish + cassava( Treatment B), pellets+ trash fish ( Treatment C ) and a mixture of trash fish + cassava + pellets ( Treatment D ) as feed had been conducted to evaluate its effect on growth of Caranx sexfasciatus. This research was carried out inTelengen Bay waters, Central Tabukan District, Sangihe Islands Regency. Fish with weighing 60,9 -62,9 g were distributed in 12 net cages measuring 3x1x1 m with the density of 5 fish each. Fish were fed three times a day for seven weeks. Fish weight was measured every week. At the end of experiment, the individual weight of fish ranged from 168,7 to 222,8 g in with the highest average weigth gain was achieved in treatment A namely 222.8 g (354.2%)), followed by treatment C 178.0 g (286.6 %) treatment D 170.08 g (280.5%), and treatment B as much as 168.7 g (274.3%). Statistical analysis displayed that weight gain of fish in treatment A was significantly different as compared to that of treatments B, C, and D. There was no significant differencesbetween treatment B, C, and D. Food conversion ratio of treatment A was significantly different compared to other treatments. Food conversion ratio of treatment A was 2.80, B 4.25, C 3.70, D 3.88. as conclusion, the use of trash fish without supplementaion with others ingradients resulted in the highest absolute and relatif growth of fish and the lowest food conversion ratio of 2.80 as compared to other treatments.
