Effect of Dietary Carbohydrate Levels and Feeding Frequencies on Growth and Carbohydrate Digestibility by White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei Under Laboratory Conditions

Zainuddin, Haryati and Siti Aslamyah

This study aims to determine the level of carbohydrate and feeding frequency on the growth and the carbohydrate digestibility of juvenile shrimp vanamei. This study used a factorial design patterns completely randomized design with two factors and three replications of each factor given time. The treatments tested were factor A (carbohydrate feeding different levels, namely 26, 32, 38, and 44%) and factor B (feeding frequency 2 times, 4 times, and 6 times per day). Shrimp juvenile were used have an average individual weight of 0.3 g. Feeding dose is 10% of the body weight and the feeding frequency adapted to the treatment. The results showed that combination treatment with carbohydrate levels by 38% and the feeding frequency 4 times a day are the best combination of treatments to the specific growth rate and digestibility of carbohydrates juvenile white shrimp.
