Alue Naga is one of the coastal and marine areas in the city of Banda Aceh which has the potential for aquaculture and high economic value, namely green mussels ( Perna viridis L). This research aims to determine the growth and survival rate of green mussels with different stocking densities in Alue Naga ponds which are still influenced by the tides of seawater. The layout of the green mussel cultivation container is at the pond water gate. The method used is an experimental test method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) model with 3 treatments, each treatment 3 times repeated. Research shows that the best average growth and survival rate for green mussels are found in treatment A with a stocking density of 20 seeds/basket, absolute length growth with an average value of 45.52 ± 0.42 mm, weekly length growth rate with an average value -an average of 3.79 ± 0.03 mm/week and an average weight of 25.92 ± 0.19 grams, while the survival rate reached 91.66%. Differences in green mussel stocking density had a significant effect on absolute length growth (PM), absolute weight (BM), and weekly length growth rate (LPPM), while survival (SR) had no significant effect.
