Abstract: 

The research aims to: 1) Evaluate the optimal carbohydrate protein contents to increase growth performance of snakehead fish, 2) Evaluate the optimal organic chrome concentration as feed supplement that can increase insulin performance in accelerating the blood glucose rate of influx, to increase growth and survival rate of snakehead fish. The results showed that blood glucose influx in snakehead fish seeds was best in the treatment of carbohydrate 35%, protein 40%, chrome 5 ppm and was lowest in the treatment of carbohydrate 40%, protein 35%, chrome 3 ppm. It was indicated that treatment of chrome concentration and carbohydrate-protein content and interaction between both of them gave real effects (P<0,05) on the growth of snakehead fish seeds (Channa striata). For Duncan further test results, a treatment that gave the highest growth was obtained, in the feeding with carbohydrate content 35%, protein 40%, chrome 5ppm. The treatment producing the lowest growth was obtained in carbohydrate content 40%, protein 35% chrome 3ppm. Next, results of various analysis in the treatment of chrome concentration and carbohydrate-protein content and the interaction between both of them did not affect the survival rate of snakehead fish. It can be concluded that blood glucose influx and growth of snakehead fish seeds was highest in treatment of carbohydrate 30%, protein 45%, chrome 5ppm, and was lowest in treatment of carbohydrate 40%, protein 35%, chrome 3 ppm. While survival rate of snakehead fish seeds reached 100% for all treatments.
