Abstract

Fish feed is a substantial component in aquaculture. Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) is known as natural ingredient to improve physiological endurance. Research on evaluating the growth performance of Tambra fish (Tor tambra) by administering fish feed mixed with cinnamon powder has been conducted. The study aims to analyze the growth performance and survival rate of Tambra fish fed with different cinnamon concentrations. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with nine replications and three treatments was chosen as experimental design. Tambra fish or jurung weighing ± 50 grams were maintained for three months. The treatments used were T1 (pellet feed without cinnamon); T2 (0.5% cinnamon pellet); T3 (Pellet with cinnamon pellet in a ratio of 1: 1). Each aquarium was filled with 10 Tambra fish. Data analysis includes specific growth rates, growth patterns, fish survival, and water qualities. The highest growth rate of tambra fish was obtained from T3 treatment with 0.266% or weight gain of 25.11 grams. The growth pattern of tambra shows a negative allometric growth pattern with a survival rate of 70-80%. Administration of cinnamon as feed supplement then is considered as effective formulation to improve the appetite of tambra fish.
