Abstract

The high demand for razor clams (Solen sp.) opens and increases overfishing opportunities. Aquaculture is one of the efforts to overcome over-exploitation of Solen sp. To carry out aquaculture, it is necessary to understand and have adequate information on the habitat conditions of Solen sp. in its natural environment. This study aims to observe and measure environmental parameters affecting Solen sp. survival. This information is important as a first step to prepare experiments for laboratory-scale cultivation. The research was conducted September 2024 in several coastal areas in Madura Island. The results of field measurements showed physical and geological parameters in the normal range (compared to research in 2023), so they were sufficient as information and initial footing in the design of laboratory-scale experiments for cultivation. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
