Abstract

Bungo fish is one of the potential fishery resources in Sidenreng Regency which has decreased due to continuous fishing. Therefore, information on fisheries biology is needed to support the management of Bungo fish resources in order to create sustainable fishing. This study aims to analyze the growth patterns and condition factors of Bungo fish based on gender, observation time and gonad maturity level. The use of this research as a source of information on the management of Bungo fish, especially in Lake Sidenreng. This research was conducted for 3 months, from September to November 2020. Sampling was obtained from 2 bungo fish fishermen in Sidenreng Lake, SidenrengRappang Regency, South Sulawesi. The number of bungo fish samples obtained during the study was 235, consisting of 163 male bungo fish and 72 female bungo fish. Based on the results of research that has been done, the growth pattern of male and female Bungo fish is negative allometric, namely the increase in body length is faster than the increase in body weight of the fish. The condition factors of male bungo fish and female bungo fish are classified as fish in good condition. Bungo fish condition factors based on the sampling time of male and female bungo fish in November and September were classified as not flat or plump fish, while in October male and female bungo fish were classified as flat or not fat fish, while the condition factor Based on gender, Bungo fish males and females are classified as fish that are not flat or plump. TKG male fish have a relatively smaller average condition factor than female bungo fish in each of the same TKG
