 Amberjack fish or what is called rock pompano and is a deep water fish characterized by a dark yellow color with a bright yellow stripe from the eyes to the tail and is a pelagic fish which is a type of predator that preys on small fish, squid and other types. Taxonomically it is included in the Family Carangidae . The market demand for this fish is quite high due to its extraordinary versatility; either served as sashimi, cured, smoked, grilled, fried or roasted as a cutlet or boiled as a fillet in broth. This type of fish hatchery has not been widely practiced in Indonesia, even though the available market demand is quite high. Hatchery efforts were carried out by the Ambon Mariculture Fisheries Center with structured broodstock domestication steps starting in June 2023. Handling of broodstock was carried out in fiber tubs with a capacity of 15-20 tonnes with a density of 10-12 fish per tub. Improvements in feed quality and vitamins are carried out in stages with dose adjustments of 3-5%. During 4 months of domestication, the number of eggs ranging from 1,400,000-2,400,000 was obtained with a total of 8,450,000 eggs. Apart from that, a spawning interval of 3-7 days per month is also obtained with a hatching rate of 10-60% with 6 fry.
