SQUID EGGS ATTACHMENT AND FISH ASSOCIATION ON THE SQUID ATTRACTOR AGGREGATING DEVICE

Abstract

Indonesia reveals incommensurate movement between fishing and reproduction as well as growth of sea fishery commodities. This point can lead to overfishing problem so in order to solve it the enrichment program is required significantly, for instance, through aggregating device program. Research was done on October 2012 by drowning two shapes of aggregating device: quadrangular and cylindrical into Bangka Island’s waters. The monitoring result after nine months shows that cylindrical aggregating device is more effective to attach the squid eggs than quadrangular one because it is covered and protected well. The other sea creatures found in the same location with the squid aggregating device are lutjanus lutjanus (kind of fish), softcoral, gastropoda dan krustace.
