 weakness
• method for fish monitoring can be use LIT,QT, and
visual sensus. the best method is visual sensus with
a transect 50x5 m

• for water quality we should take at different time (at

morning, noon, and evening or at low tide and high
tide)

• the weakness of the presentation is lack of time and

gps info. and also the analysis and methodology.
 weakness

• don't forget to write the source of literature for

methodology.
