Abstract
Abstract Lobster is one of the fisheries products which has become the most searched in international trade because of its high price. Therefore, the highest number of lobsters is from the natural fishing effort. The increasing market has an impact on decreasing habitat. Uncontrollable degradation impact requires an alternative to save the stability of lobster production in nature. This study aims to analyse the suitability of candidate locations for the placement of Lobster Artificial Reefs. The selection site uses the Stationary Visual Census method, while oceanography parameters use Water Quality Checker. Data collection was done in August and October 2021. The analyse suitability site was based on the bio-ecological parameters from some research stations. The research recommended all stations from 2014 to 2016 and FGD in July 2021. Recommendation site was found around Tiung Stone station. It is expected to be a protected area from predators, and it can be a feeding area to provide natural food during lobsters’ life cycle in nature. These results still need to ensure the effectiveness of the artificial habitat function for lobster breeding. Further analysis is required to see the effectiveness value of the location and lobster artificial reef before being implemented in other locations.
