Analysis of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Content of Seaweed Codium sp. in Super Intensive Shrimp Pond Liquid Waste

Abstract

Codium sp. seaweed cultivation trials. Which is different seed weights on the growth media in the form of super intensive shrimp pond liquid waste. The research aims to analyze the ability of Codium sp. absorbing nitrogen and phosphorus from shrimp culture media. The study was conducted for 45 days at the Experimental Pond Installation (ITP) Research and Development Center for Brackish Water Aquaculture (BPPBAP), Punaga Village, Mangarabombang District, Takalar Regency. A plastic box is used by container in this reseach measuring 87 cm x 64 cm with a water level of 40. The study consisted of 4 weight treatments of Codium sp. namely A (50 g), B (100 g), C (50 g) and D (200 g) and each treatment was repeated three times. Data of reseach is analyzed by ANOVA with 95% confidence level and further W-Tuckey test using SPSS version 23 software. The results showed that there was an effect of absorption by seaweed Codium sp. with a seed weight of 200 g resulted in the highest N-total absorption rate of 0.1133±0.01155%, while the highest P-Total absorption rate was at a weight of 100 g with a value of 0.00500±0.002646%.
