Relationship of long weight between milkfish (Chanos chanos forsskal) and sea cucumber (Holothuria leucospilot) that are multi-trophic sea farming

Milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) and sea cucumbers (Holothurians leucospilot), have high economic value, both to meet domestic and foreign consumption needs. This study examines the long-weight relationship of milkfish and sea cucumbers that are cultivated by multi tropic sea farming at the Tablolong Fish Seed Center in West Kupang District which has been conducted in October to December 2018. Sampling is done every 15 days with a maintenance period of 45 days showed that the milkfish and sea cucumbers have a negative algometric growth pattern based on a value of b which is lower than 3. The water quality parameters at the Balai Benih Ikan Pantai are still in the normal range to support the growth of milkfish and sea cucumbers.
