Length–Weight relationships kurisi of males and females in the waters of the Sunda Strait showed allometric negative growth pattern W=0,00002L2,4844 and W = 0,0019L2,0144. Kurisi females in this study had a high condition factor is the sampling time in April and June at 1.1241 and 1.0807. While the lowest condition factors on sampling in August is 0.9819.
