Abstract
This study aims to determine the level of carbohydrates and the frequency of feeding on the total digestibility and survival of barramundi fry (Lates calcarifer, Bloch). This study used a completely randomized design with a factorial pattern with two factors and three replications each. The treatments tested were factor A (carbohydrate content, namely 30, 35 and 40%) and factor B (frequency of feeding 2, 4 and 6 times per day). The white snapper used had an average weight of 0.39 g per individual. The feed dose is set at 20-10% of the body weight of the white snapper fry with the frequency of feeding adjusted to the treatment. The results showed that the carbohydrate level of the feed, the frequency of feeding and the combination of the two had a significant effect on the total digestibility of the white snapper seed feed with the best combination at the carbohydrate level of 40% and the frequency of feeding 6 times per day. Treatment of carbohydrate level, frequency of feeding and the combination of the two did not significantly affect the survival of white snapper fry
