Coral Fish Community
Collecting data on reef fish communities in research sites using Line Intercept Transect survey method LIT. Transects carried out by pulling the roller
meter of length 70 m transects placed parallel to the coastline and 2.5 m wide either side of the transect line so that the broad field of visualization of fish per
transect is 350 square meters at depths of 30-10 m. Data collection was done on coral reef fish on the east side, west, north and south island to island Kadatau
Liwutongkidi while on the south side and north of the siompu island in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Technique data collecting fish with underwater visual census UVC Fish species in the data location of the study and classified into 3 groups based,
English at al. 1977, namely: 1. Target Fish. Fish which is a target for cacth or more known as an important
economic fish or fish consumtion i.e; family Serranidae grouper, Lethrinidae, Nemimpteridae, Lutjanidae snapper, Scaridae, Acanthuridae, Mulidae,
Siganidae, and Haemulidae sweetlips.
2. Fish Indicators. As a determinant of fish to coral reefs because the fish is close to do with the fertility of coral reef fish from the family of Chaetodontidae
3. Other fish Major Family. These fish are generally in the number of lots and lots of sea water as the ornamental fish Pomacentridae, Caesionidae, Scaridae,
Pomacanthidae, Labridae , Apogonidae cardinal fishes and others
3.4.1.3. Lifeform of Coral Reef
The identification of growth of lifeform coral communities or closing base substrate and other biota are measured by calculating the length of the offending
roller meters each biota. Identification was done at 20 stations in marine conservation areas. Then record the types of corals that offensive line transect
with accuracy up to centimeters. These data to calculate a percentage value of percent coral cover with the classification of coral communities based lifeform.
List of classification of the basic components of reef communities based lifeform Table 5.
