Abstract

This study aims to determine the growth of striped catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus) in aquaponic systems in different plants. The study was conducted at the Laboratory of Aquaculture, Ciparanje, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Universitas Padjadjaran from June to July 2017. The method used in this study was the experimental method using Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 4 times replication. Treatment A: Biofilter by treatment of water spinach plants, Treatment B: Biofilter by treatment of lettuce plants, Treatment C: Biofilter by treatment of scallions plants, and Treatment D: Control (unfiltered). The measured parameters in this study were fish growth and water quality which includes level of nitrate, ammonia and phosphate in the water. The results showed that the highest fish specific growth rate in treatment A 0.0395±0.0039% with a survival rate of 93.125±13.75% followed by treatments B and C, while the water quality parameters including nitrate, ammonia and phosphate concentrations ranged from 0.042 -1,806 mg / l; 0.003-0.084 mg / l; 0.036-2,342 mg / l.
