The research applied completely randomized design with 5 treatments of host fish (Cyprinus carpio, Pristolepis fasciatus, Oreochromis niloticus, Trichogaster pectoralis and Clarias gariepinus) with 6 replications. The results of the research showed that the use of fishes host has influenced the glochidia viability. The highest glochidia viability was in Trichogaster pectoralis there was a great diffoence compared to other host fish. This result showed that Trichogaster pectoralis was the most effective host fish of Anodonta woodiana glochidia.
