Muhammad Kasnir, Harlina and Rosmiati

The physicochemical studies were carried out to asses water resource in Mangara Bombang District, South Sulawesi in relation to their potential for shrimp aquaculture use. Water samples were collected from pond, coastal area and river and analyzed for pH, TSS, salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), biodegradable organic matter (BOD), Ammonia (NH3-N), Nitrate (NO2-N), Nitrite (NO3-N), and Orthophosphate (PO4-P). The results revealed that Mangara Bombang District is suitable for the development of pond shrimp farm with values obtained for pH, Temperature, TSS, salinity, dissolved oxygen (DO), biodegradable organic matter (BOD), Ammonia (NH3-N), Nitrate (NO2-N), Nitrite (NO3-N), and orthophosphate (PO4 3--P) were 8.17 ± 0.38, 29.56 ± 0.75°C, 37.73 ± 12.44 mg/l, 30.01 ± 3.77,17, 5.89-6.02 mg/l, 1.16 ± 0.53 mg/l, 0.02614 ± 0.3355 mg/l, 0.0115 ± 0.0104 mg/l, 0.0555 ± 0.0956 mg/l, and 0.0201 ± 0.0051, respectively for pond water source, 8.06 ± 0.40, 28.56 ± 2.72°C, 58.17 ± 22.18 mg/l, 30.90 ± 4.01°/oo, 5.88 ± 1.42 mg/l, 0.74 ± 0.27 mg/l, 0.2636 ± 0.3303, 0.0110± 0.0141 mg/l, 0.2483 ± 0.5690 mg/l, and 0.0583 ± 0.0648, respectively for the coastal water source, and 7.77 ± 0.42, 26.77 ± 19.94°C, 60.13 ± 15.45 mg/l, 17.95 ± 3.79°/oo, 6.02 ± 0.86, 1.32 ± 0.80 mg/l, 0.1101 ± 0.0812 mg/l, 0.0924 ± 0.1241 mg/l, 0.0250 ± 0.0074 mg/l, and 0.0051 ± 0.0037 mg/l, respectively for river water source.
