Maintenance of local snakehead postlarva Channa sp. on different containers in domestication framework
Summary
Domestication trials of wild-caught snakehead fish (Channa sp.) from West Aceh showed that aquarium containers produced the highest survival rates and weight gain for postlarvae, while fiber containers yielded the best length growth. The study confirmed that local snakehead fish can be successfully domesticated to reduce pressure on wild populations.
Provision of local snakehead fish supply (Channa sp.) is come from nature. If demand for local snakehead fish increases then the exploitation rate of this fish in nature will be excessive. It will cause the fish population in nature to decline. Domestication is an effort to prevent the delining of fish population. The aim of this study was to ensure that snakehead from the Arongan Lambalek Area, West Aceh Regency can survive, grow and develop in various cultivation containers, therefore can be cultivated by local communities. This study used an experimental method with a completely randomized design with three treatments of cultivation containers and three replications. The treatment was an aquarium container (P1), fiber container (P2), and tarpaulin container (P3). The size of snakehead fish used in this study had an average length of 2.72 cm and weight of 0.17 g. The results showed that the survival rate and the highest weighting value were found in the aquarium container treatment (P1), while the growth of fish length was found in the fiber (P2) . This study showed that domestication of the local snakehead fish in Arongan Lambalek, West Aceh was successfully carried out and the aquarium is the best container for rearing the domesticated local snakehead fish larvae.
