STUDI ZOOPLANKTON DI DANAU TELUK KOTA JAMBI
Abstract: Lake Teluk natural
potential is very rich in zooplankton. However, the there are many untapped
potential, so that appropriate unknown environmental factors to support the
growth, reproduction, and abundance of zooplankton that is potential as fish
food can be cultivated properly. Therefore, there needs to be research related
to environmental factors and abundance of zooplankton in Lake Teluk Jambi city
in order to see the natural potential of fish forage in the area. This study
was conducted at three stations in the Lake Teluk Jambi and Biotechnology
Laboratory, Faculty of Science and Technology, the Jambi University. The method
used in this research was the survery and analysis. Measured parameters were
factors abundance of zooplankton and the physical and chemical environmental
factors. The identification results obtained three phyla of zooplankton
(protozoa, rotifers and sponges) and 14 genuses that were Platytrichotus,
Centropyxis,
Perispira, Corythion, Acropisthium, Turania, Trinema, Euglypha, Enteroplea,
Proalinopsis, Pedipartia, Trocospheera, Filinia, Meyenia. Analysis of physical
and chemical environmental factors showed solubility values (DO) range 4,8 -
6,8 mg/L, the water temperature ranges from 29-30 °C and oxygen consumption
(BOD) in the range of 3,7 to 6,6 mg/L relatively optimal for the growth of
zooplankton, but have not found any zooplankton that have the potential to be
cultivated as a natural fish feed.
