Shrimp commodities in Indonesia have been cultivated, either traditionally, traditionally plus, semi intensive, or intensively. One type of shrimp that is constantly strived to increase its production is the shrimp vaname (Litopenaneus vannamei). The environmental conditions of pond waters are closely related to pond water quality. One of the water quality parameters affecting the survival and growth of vaname shrimp is salinity. The study was conducted from May to June 2018 at the Fish Seed Hall (BBIP) Ghonebalano, Ghonebalano Village, Duruka District, Muna Regency. This study aims to determine the effect of water salinity on different media on the survival and growth of vaname shrimp. The study used a Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and three replications. Treatment A salinity 20 ppt, B treatment salinity 25 ppt, C treatment salinity 30 ppt and treatment D salinity 35 ppt. The results showed that the treatment had significant effect on the survival of the animals in the 95% confidence level where the survival in sequence, the treatment of A 87.50%, the treatment of B 83.33%, the C treatment 80.56% and the treatment D 69.44% . The treatment also had a significant effect on the growth of test animal at 95% confidence level. Successive growth was, treatment A 2.01 g, treatment B 1.91 g, treatment C 1,71 g and treatment D 1.51 g.

Milkfish cultivation in Muna Regency has not yet developed optimally, allegedly due to poor water circulation. Internal solution that can be done is the use of probiotics in water maintenance media. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of adding proiotics to media water with different doses on the growth and survival of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forskal), carried out in May to June 2019 at the Gonangkalo Beach Fish Seed Center (BBIP), Gonebalano, Duruka District, Muna Regency. The study used a complete randomized design (CRD) with three probiotics namely A 10 mL treatment per container, 20 mL treatment B per container and 30 mL C treatment per container. Data were analyzed using Variance Analysis (ANOVA) at 95% confidence level (α 0.05). The results showed that the highest daily growth rate was obtained in Treatment B at 5.84±0.16% per day followed by Treatment A at 5.71±0.23% per day and Treatment C at 5.42±0.10% per day. The highest absolute growth of milkfish was obtained in Treatment B at 8.24±0.28 g per individual and the lowest was in Treatment C at 7.95±0.0.33 g per individual, Continuation in Treatment A and B 83.33±5,77%, while in Treatment C 80.00±10.00%. Analysis of variance (α 0.05) showed that the use of probiotics with different doses significantly affected absolute growth (p>0.011) but did not significantly affect the daily growth rate (p<0.063) and survival (p<0.850) of milkfish

Vaname shrimp is one of the fishery products that are expected to produce foreign exchange for the country besides tiger shrimp.  One factor that can affect the growth and the production of vaname shrimp culture is dense stocking. The research was conducted in October-December 2016 at the Balai Benih Ikan Pantai (BBIP) Ghonebalano, aims to determine the effect of different stocking density on the growth and survival of vaname shrimp.  The research was using Completely Randomized Design with three treatment levels of density, i.e. treatment A = 10 individuals per container, treatment B = 15 individuals per container and treatment C = 20 individuals per container and three replications.  The results showed that the highest growth was obtained in treatment A which was 1,563 g/individuals, compared with treatment B (1.189 g/individuals) and C treatment (0.834 g/individuals).  Survival rate in treatment A is 80.00%, B treatment equal to 75,56% and treatment C equal to 70,00%.  Analysis of variance at 95% confidence level (α0.05) showed that the different density had a significant effect on growth, but had no significant effect on survival rate of the vaname shrimp larvae.

White shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is considered able to replace black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) as a positive diversification.  Excellence shrimp vaname (L. vannamei) is a high nutritional value, fast growth and able to use the water column as a place to live so it can be maintained with high stocking density. Natural feed (phytoplankton) can be stimulated through fertilization.  The study was carried out at the Ghonebalano Coastal Fish Seed Center (BBIP), aiming to determine the effect of using different doses of urea and TSP fertilizer on the growth and survival of vaname shrimp (L. vannamei). The study used a Completely Randomized Design with three levels of combination treatment of fertilizer doses, namely treatment A urea 0.5 g/TSP 0.7 g; treatment B Urea fertilizer dose 0.7 g/TSP 0.9 g and treatment C dose Urea fertilizer 0.9 g/TSP 1.11 g. The results showed that the highest growth was obtained in treatment B i.e. 1.54±0.16 g/individuals, compared with treatment A (1.11±0.08 g/individuals) and treatment C (1.32±0.10 g/individuals). Survival in treatment A was 71.11±3.85%, treatment B was 73.33±6.67% and treatment C was 75.55±3.85%. Analysis of variance at the 95% confidence level (α0.05) showed that the administration of urea and TSP fertilizers differed significantly (0.05>0.03) on growth, but did not significantly influence (0.05<0.58) on the survival of vaname shrimp larvae.

The study aims to determine the optimum temperature, optimum density and optimum temperature and density interactions in milkfish (Chanos chanos) transportation. This research was conducted in 2016, in Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi Province. This study uses a factorial design, consisting of Temperature and Density Factors. The design of the combination treatment of Temperature (A) namely Temperature 15 oC, A2 Temperature 18 oC, A3 Temperature 21 oC. For Density Factor (B), B1 Density of 600 individuals / container, B2 Density of 800 individuals / container, B3 Density of 1,000 individuals / container. The results of analysis of variance at 95% and 99% confidence level, the treatment in this study had no significant effect, where the F count is smaller than the F table. This shows that the combination of temperature and density tested in this study can be used for energy transportation activities for 14 hours. Based on the percentage of graduation of nener life tested in the transportation, starting from the biggest graduation to the smallest life pass, is a combination of 15 oC temperature treatment and a density of 1000 individuals 95.57%, a combination of 18 oC temperature treatment and a density of 800 individuals 95.04 %, a combination of temperature treatment of 21 oC and density of 1000 individuals 91.70%, combination of temperature treatment of 15 oC and density of 800 individuals 90.04%, combination of temperature treatment of 15 oC and density of 600 individuals 89.89%, combination of temperature treatment of 21 oC and a density of 800 individuals 88.67%, a combination of temperature treatment 18 oC and a density of 1000 individuals 88.07%, a combination of temperature treatment 21 oC and a density of 600 individuals 84.33% and a combination of temperature treatment 18 oC and density of 600 individuals 73.28%.

Vannamei shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is a commodity that is expected to not only increase options for farmers but also sustain the rise of shrimp farming business in Indonesia. One important factor in shrimp farming is the availability of feed. In addition to the availability of natural feed during cultivation, stocking density is also very influential in the survival rate and growth of shrimp vannamei. The research was conducted in September-December 2016 farms Bonea Village District of Lasalepa Muna with Test the different dosages with different stocking density. The study used a Random Group Factorial, which is based fertilization (Factor A) with three levels and stocking density (Factor B) as many as three levels, each with three replications so that all 27 units experimental unit. The results showed that the combination of factors dose of 0.7 g of urea + 0.9 g TSP and stocking density factor of 10 individuals per container provides prawn post larvae growth vannamei most excellent and a combination of factors Urea fertilizer dosage of 0.9 g TSP + 1.1 g and stocking density factor of 20 individuals per container provides a survival rate of post larvae vannamei most good. Water quality media for research in the range that is optimal for the growth and survival of post larvae vannamei.

The study aimed to determine the growth and survival of Litopenaeus vannamei shrimp with the application of probiotics to different stocking densities.  The study was conducted from May to June 2018 at the Balai Benih Ikan Pantai (BBIP) Ghonebalano, Duruka District, Muna Regency, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three levels of solid stocking treatment namely treatment A is 18 individu per container, treatment B is 24  individu per container and treatment C is 30  individu per container with three replications.  Data analysis using Variance Analysis (ANOVA) at the confidence level of 95% (α 0.05).  The results showed that the highest daily growth was obtained at 24 individual densities of 5.88% per day, compared to 18 individual densities of 5.86% per day and 30 individual densities of 5.74% per day.  The highest absolute growth is obtained at 24 individual density of 2.43 g per individu, then 18 individual density of 2.15 g per individual, and the lowest at 30 individual density of 2.02 g per individual.  Survival at a density of 18 individual and a density of 24 individual at 88.89%, while a 30-ind density of 86.67%.  Analysis of variance (α 0.05) showed that the application of probiotics to different stocking densities had no significant effect on the daily growth rate of vannamei shrimp (p<0.939), absolute growth of vannamei shrimp (p<0.080), and survival of vannamei shrimp (p<0.744).

One of the factors that affect the growth of tiger shrimp is the quality of feed. Nutrient content in feed such as protein, carbohydrate and fat, generally used as a parameter of feed quality. Feed consumed by shrimp is not all digested, one of which depends on the enzymatic ability of the shrimp digestive tract. The use of probiotic bacteria in addition to having the ability to reduce colonies, inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and neutralize water quality, probiotic bacteria can help digestibility of the intestine. The aim of this research is to know the growth and survival of post larvae of shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabr.) Through the provision of probiotics with different doses. The research was conducted at Balai Fish Fishing Hall of Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Post larva shrimp tiger (PL-20) of 120 tails, maintained for 28 days. The tested treatment was probiotic dose 5 ml (treatment A), dose 10 ml treatment B), dose 15 ml (treatment C), and without probiotics (control). Probiotics are given every 7 days on water maintenance media using a pipette (0.5-20 ml scale). Weighing results showed relatively high post-larva shrimp larvae growth of 400.00% (treatment B); 291.67% (treatment C); of 233.33% (treatment A) and equal to 58.33% (Control). Variation analysis result showed that giving of probiotic with different dose gave real effect (P<0,01) to relative growth of postlarva prawn weights (P. monodon Fabr.). Provision of probiotics has no significant effect on postlarva tiger prawn survival rate (P. monodon Fabr.). The survival rate of post larvae of tiger shrimp during the study was in the range 66.67-83.33%.

The plant species of miana (Coleus scutellariodes) has been historically recognised for its antiviral properties.  However, there is currently no scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of miana leaf extract in preventing White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) in tiger prawns (Penaeus monodon) when administered via feed. This study aimed to determine the impact of including miana leaf extract in the diet on the  survival percentage of tiger prawns that have been infected with the WSSV. The study was carried out between June and August 2023 in the Laboratory of Parasite and Fish Disease and the Hatchery Laboratory of Hasanuddin University. This study employed a completely randomized experimental design consisting of five distinct treatments, each with three replicates. The experimental treatments included the control group (treatment A), where food was provided without the inclusion of miana leaf extract. Furthermore, there were four treatment groups (treatments B, C, D and E) where feed was supplemented with miana leaf extract at concentrations of 125, 250, 500, and 750 µg mg^-1 feed, respectively. Rearing was performed in two phases: preinfection (25 days) and post- infection (7 days). The statistical results of the statistical on pre-WSSV infection indicated that the addition of miana leaf extract to the food resulted in survival that was not significantly different (p>0.05). The results were different post-infection, significantly (p<0.05) the shrimp fed with the addition of miana leaf extract were higher than those without the extract. Furthermore, there was a significant difference in shrimp survival between pre- and post-WSSV infection. WSSV mitigation through immunostimulants using miana leaf extract, which is inexpensive and environmentally friendly, has the potential to minimize the impact of WSSV infection.

Development of lobster cultivation activities in Muna regency relatively not optimal.  Availability of feed is be expected to be an obstacle in the development of lobster cultivation.  This Research aims to determine the effect of feed ingredients on growth and survival of spiny lobster (Panulirus versicolor).  The Research was conducted in December 2017 to March 2018, located in Bahari Village, Towea District, Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province using a randomized block design with three levels of feed ingredients treatment namely treatment A = blood clam meat, treatment B = white shrimp and treatment C = trash fish. The results showed that the highest specific growth rate was obtained in treatment A which was 1.69 ± 0.09 %/day, then treatment C (1.13±0.09 %/day), and the in lowest treatment B (1.09±0,06 %/day). The highest absolute growth was obtained in treatment A of 606.67 ± 15,28 g/individual then treatment C was 336.67±15,28 g/individual and the lowest was in treatment B of 300.00±10.00 g/individual. Survival of sea lobster is 100% in all three treatments. Analysis of variance at the 95% confidence level (α0.05) showed that different feed ingredients had a significantly different effect on the daily growth rate, and the absolute growth of sea lobsters (P. versicolor).
