Red Water System (RWS) Media Application Impact On Water Quality In Catfish Culture Using Aquaponics Method

This study aims to analyze the Red Water System (RWS) probiotics application on water quality in aquaponic system. The research was conducted in February – March 2016 at Ciparanje Experimental Laboratorium, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, universitas Padjadjaran. The research used experimental method using Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and three replications. Treatment A: RWS 7.5 µl / L / week without aquaponic prohiotic treatment, Treatment 13: aquaponic without RWS probiotics, treatment C: RWS probiotic addition on aquaponic media 7,5 µl / L / week, treatment 13: addition of RWS probiotics on aquaponic media 10 µl / L / week, and treatment E: addition of RWS probiotics on 12.8 µl / L / week. Parameters measured include dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, ammonia, nitrate and phosphate. The data of the research were analyzed descriptively. The rsults showed that the addition of RWS probiotics increased the concentration of ammonia, nitrate, phosphate and decrease dissolved oxygen, while the aquaponic model was able to decrease the concentration of ammonia, nitrate, phosphate and increase dissolved oxygen. Treatment 0 has the lowest average ammonia, nitrate and phosphate values woof 0.55 mg / 1, 0.55 mg / l and 2.34 mg / 1, respectively and the highest dissolved oxygen concentration in treatment 0 with a value of 5. 4 mg / I while temperature and pH were relatively unchanged.
