Abstract
The field practice was conducted at the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Technology Outreach Station for Marine Water located in Barangay Bamban, Masinloc, Zambales from April 19 to May 22, 2015. The station is involved in the hatchery production of sea cucumber (Holothuria scabra). The station also produces benthic and planktonic diatoms for food for the larvae of sea cucumber. The major strength of the station is the sustainable source of seawater. In addition, the station produces seaweeds seedlings, which are distributed free of charge to the farmers near the coastal area to the station is the absence of freshwater. Seawater is used for washing the tanks at the station. The seawater was to be filtered first using a water pump before it can be used for drinking and for cooking.
