Triplicate groups of fish were fed an comercial diet (55.4% protein, 14.1% lipid) four meals a day (8 a.m, 12 a.m, 4 p.m, dan 8 p.m) for 12 weeks. Survival rate (SR), body weight gain (BWG, specific growth rate (SGR), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) significantly affected (p<0.05) by feeding rate. Experimental application of the IMTA model shows that although the amount of feed given is higher, it can produce better growth performance. ## Keywords - Feed conversion ratio - Animal science - Biology - Aquaculture - Body weight - Growth rate - Fishery - Perna viridis - Fish - Mussel - Mathematics - Endocrinology - Geometry --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
