The objective of the present study was to determine the best material for enhancing nutritional value of Daphnia fed to climbing perch (Anabas testudineus) larvae. The study was conducted at Laboratory of Marine and Fishery Faculty, Syiah Kuala University, Indonesia in July 2015. The completely randomized design was used, this study was conducted with three enhancer materials; chicken manure, coconut dregs and soybean meals. The Annova test showed that the treatment gave a significant effect on specific growth rate, weight and length gains (p < 0.05), but did not give a significant effect on survival rate of climbing perch larvae (p > 0.05). The highest growth performance was found at fish fed with Daphnia enhanced by soybean meals. Hence, it is concluded that the best enrichment material of Daphnia for climbing perch larvae is soybean meal. © 2016, BIOFLUX SRL. All rights reserved.
