Abstract: Reef fish are one of the biotas that live in coral reef ecosystems, and their lives depend on the condition of coral reefs. Reef fish communities have a close relationship with coral reefs as their habitat. Collecting data on reef fish and coral growth forms using the underwater visual census (UVS) method and methods point intercept transect (PIT). The results of the identification of coral growth forms found 10 growth forms. The most abundant group of fish in the core zone waters of the Anambas Islands was the omnivorous group of fish found as many as 14,924 ind/250m
2. The uniformity index value is obtained by the criteria for a stable uniformity index. The cluster analysis results showed that the similarity index of 43% was found in three groups of entities. The correspondence analysis results found three groupings of reef fish based on their association with coral growth forms.
