Study of the Effect of Gypsum and Rice Straw Extract on the Control of Earthy-Musty Odor in Tilapia Culture Pond

Earthy-musty odor, geosmin, MIB, gypsum, rice straw extract, Nile tilapiaAbstract
The effect of gypsum and rice straw extract to reduce the levels of earthy-musty odor in tilapia earthen ponds was determined. Three treatments with 3 replicates in a completely randomized design were performed as follows: T1 - control; T2 - gypsum at 200 ppm, and T3 - rice straw tannin extract at 1 ppm. The results show that rice straw tannin extract treatment in tilapia ponds was the most effective method in reducing off-flavor in pond water. The use of 200 ppm gypsum in reducing off-flavor in ponds was also more effective than the control. Both rice straw extract and gypsum-treated ponds had increased fish biomass and %FCE. These methods have potential as alternative methods for the reduction of off-flavor, as well as the control of phytoplankton, turbidity, and TSS in tilapia ponds.Downloads
