Water Quality Correlation of Hatchability of White Snapper (Lates Calcarifer) at the Lampung Marine Aquaculture Fisheries Centre (BBPBL)

Abstract

Water quality is a major factor in the survival of white snapper. In the process of successfully producing white snapper, it is necessary to monitor the water quality in the spawning tank so that it can determine the optimal water quality and its effect on the hatching power of snapper eggs. The purpose of this study was to see the correlation of water quality parameters with egg hatching, and to determine the relationship between length and weight in White Snapper. The analysis method used is the parametric statistical method with the analysis tool used, namely the SPSS statistical application 26. The analysis used is a simple linear regression test, and a correlation test between water quality and egg hatching power. The results of the study showed that the growth pattern was more dominant in increasing the length of white snapper, while the results of the Pearson correlation test showed that temperature and salinity suitability greatly influenced the number of white snapper eggs that hatched.
