Abstract

Betta fish in one spawning period produce a higher ratio of female fish, while male betta fish will produce a higher amount of profit in cultivation. So it is necessary to increase the production of male betta fish with sex reversal. This study aims to evaluate the effect of java long pepper (Piper retrovactrum Vahl) extract and determine the right time in the masculinization process of betta fish. The research design used was a randomized block design (RBD) with 4 doses of java long pepper extract and 3 age groups. The dosage levels used for treatment were P1 (without additional dose/control), P2 (0,5 mg/L), P3 (1 mg/L), and P4 (2 mg/L) with larvae age groups of 3, 5, and 7 days after hatching. Soaking was carried out for 5 hours in each age group of larvae. The results showed that the use of java long pepper extract was able to direct the percentage of males (p<0,05) with the highest value of 43,67±9,92%. The dose of ajava long ppper extract of 2 mg/L (P4) is considered the best dose in producing the percentage of male betta fish. Meanwhile, different age groups had the same effect on the percentage of male betta fish (p>0,05).
