One of the most popular tropical fish kept in the aquariums is the Angelfish. Angelfish belongs to the Cichlidae family and especially the species Pterophyllum scalare were found in the Amazone river and in the coastal rivers of Guinea. It distinguishes itself from other tropical species by its breeding behavior which involves competition for terri...

Farming ornamental fish in aquariums and especially the tropical egg-layer with parental care is now an establish industry in several countries including Europe. The success of farming ornamental fish depends on their fish nutrition and the composition and type of the fish diets. This paper examines the growth rate and survival rate of cichlid Arch...

... Kisaran nilai pH dan suhu selama pemeliharaan merupakan kisaran yang ideal untuk pemeliharaan ikan maanvis. Vlachos et al. (2008) menyatakan, nilai pH untuk budidaya ikan maanvis berkisar antara 6,2-6,8. Menurut Agaus (2001) suhu untuk budidaya ikan maanvis yaitu berkisar antara 20-32,2ºC.Penurunan pH setelah minggu ke-2 diduga disebabkan karena adanya ikan mati dan sisa pakan yang menumpuk di dasar akuarium. ...

Almaniar et al, 2019. The Using of Water Jasmine (Echinodorus palaefolius) as Biological Filter on Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) Rearing. JLSO Water quality was One factors that become a contraint in ornamentalfish culture. This study aimed to compare the result of jasmine water as a biological filter in maintaining water quality and reducing organic matter in the rearing of angelfish with a recirculation system. This research was conducted for 28 days at the Basic Laboratory of Aquaculture, Departement of aquaculture, Universitas Sriwijaya. The research Used a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 3 replications. The results showed that water quality of the temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, ammonia, nitrat and phosphate values was (27.2-29.2ºC), (5.7-6.9), (4.68-5.74 mgL-1), (0.005-0.037 mgL-1), (0,06-0,12 mgL-1) and ( 0.013-0.107 mgL-1). In treatment P0 the lowest fish survival was 44.45%, absolute length growth was 1.56 ± 0.26 cm, absolute weight growth was 1.47 ± 0.34 g, feed efficiency was 40,54 ± 2,54. While in treatment P4 the highest survival was 72.22%, absolute length growth was 1.24 ± 0.17, absolute weight growth was 1.25 ± 0.24 g feed efficiency 51.32 ± 13. The survival rate of angelfish in the treatment without using water jasmine showed the lowest percentage of survival compared to other treatment.
