Abstract | ||||
The tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) is a high-value species widely cultivated in aquaculture ponds. However, recent years have seen a decline in its production, primarily due to low survival rates. To address this issue, strategies to increase survival rates must focus on improving feed nutrition, enhancing immune resistance, and minimizing both space requirements and environmental impact. One promising approach is the use of noni leaf extract. The study aimed at analyzing the improvement of tiger shrimp larvae performance through bioenrichment of noni leaf extract in Artemia salina. The research was conducted experimentally and involved several stages, including sampling, extraction, phytochemical analysis, proximate analysis, toxicity testing, and larval rearing. The larval rearing phase was designed using a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 experimental treatments and 3 replicates for each treatment. The measured parameters included growth, toxicity, survival rate and water quality. The results indicated that the addition of noni leaf extract does not contain toxicity and is able to increase nutrition in Artemia salina as natural food to increase the growth and survival rate of the tiger prawn larvae. An increased performance of the tiger prawn larvae was recorded with growth of 64.48%, while the survival rate was 53.33%. The optimal result were achieved with a dosage of 150ppm of noni leaf extract. | ||||
