WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT OF VANNAMEI SHRIMP (Litopenaeus vannamei) AT THE SOUTH AREA AND SEA FISHERIES CENTER PANGANDARAN

Fisheries

Vannamei shrimp cultivation with intensive and super intensive patterns in Indonesia has so far developed and uses various types of ponds such as land ponds, cement ponds, and HDPE ponds. Although Vannamei shrimp cultivation has many advantages, if environmental conditions such as water quality are not by the standards for cultivation, it will certainly cause death and ultimately losses in the cultivation business. One technique to overcome this problem in vannamei shrimp farming is good water quality management. Because with good water quality management, can maintain water quality by standards for cultivation and can increase pond productivity. The purpose of this research is to analyze water quality including pH, water temperature, brightness, salinity, and ammonia for vannamei shrimp culture. Based on the results of research, the water quality in this aquaculture pond is still in the optimum range so that it supports the survival of vannamei shrimp.
