Lack of macrominerals like calcium, which affects moulting failure, decreasing water quality (low alkalinity and pH), delayed development, and death, are issues that arise in the lobster culture environment. Calcium needs to be added to the maintenance media to solve the issue. It is a novelty in research that the use of the proper dose of calcium in maintenance media is physiologically able to resolve these issues of environmental change, moulting, and growth. This study employed a fully randomized design with several calcium dosages, including 0, 20, 40, and 60 mg/L CaCO3. The administration of various calcium significantly changed the absolute weight, for example, is affected by variations in calcium content (P<0.05). For the media to work at its best in terms of output, the ideal dose of calcium carbonate addition is 38.42 mg/L. © School of Engineering, Taylor's University.
