THE DOMESTICATION EFFORT OF POTENTIAL CULTIVATION OF LOCAL ORNAMENTAL FISH GERMPLASM IN WATERS AROUND THE CAMPUS OF BANGKA BELITUNG UNIVERSITY

Abstract

The aims of this research were to inventorize fish species and their spatial distribution in river of UBB and to domesticate local fish of Bangka Island that have high economic value, especially those that live around the campus of Bangka Belitung University. This research have done on July to September 2019. Test material used in this study were fish and water from river in the campus of Bangka Belitung University.

Data of water quality taken by observate the parameters, included of temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, turbidity, brightness, hardness, current speed, and water deep. Data of fish samples were analyzed by simple linear regression analysis method, while data of water quality parameter were analyzed descriptively
