Artificial reefs are to be used as a tool in fisheries management in worldwide since long time. Fishing practices in artificial reef areas should also be operated with a management model as it is in the other fishing zones. Unmanaged artificial reef system may be more harmful than its profits. Acoustic telemetry can be an extremely effective tool to understand the home range and movement models of the fish species for data of management fisheries in artificial reef areas. Acoustic telemetry technology has an important potential to determine strategy in fisheries management around artificial reefs and in construct more efficient artificial reef project.
