Abstract
This study aims to find outthe effects of stocking density on the growth of length, weight and survival rate of juvenile seahorses (Hippocampus barbouri). The expected output of this study would be some informations for the development of hatcheries and numerous subsequent studies. This study uses 4 treatments with 3 repetitions so that there are 12 experimental unit. The results showed that the different stocking densities had no significant effect on the rate of growth in length and weight of juvenile seahorses (Hippocampus barbouri), whereas the different stocking densities had a significant effect on the survival rate of juvenile seahorses (Hippocampus barbouri), where the highest survival ratefor the preservation of juvenile seahorses was obtainedat the stocking density of 2 tails / liter.
