Author(s): Livia Rossila Tanjung*
Aquaculture of gourami in Indonesia is still carried out traditionally with a simple touch of technology that makes
the mortality rate of larvae is still very high. This study aimed to determine the survival rate and development of
giant gourami Padang strain larvae Osphronemus gouramy reared in a traditional way and to gain insight into the
cause of mass death during the larval period. The larvae were obtained from six pairs of broodstocks that consisted
of three categories, which is the grey broodstocks that spawned the previous month, the grey broodstocks that did
