Abstract

Water quality can be seen from the diversity of plankton in the waters. Plakton can also be considered as a bioindicator to determine whether the waters are polluted or not. This research was conducted by taking water samples in the waters of the Krueng Pase River and analyzing them in the laboratory. The results of the analysis show that the most common phytoplankton found the type Naviculla sp reached 10%. This type of phytoplankton belongs to the Bacillariophyceae class. Phytoplankton from this group can be a bioindicator of environmental pollution in water.Keywords: Bioindicator; Fitoplankton; Pollutan

Abstract

The whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is a prominent species in global aquaculture due to its resilience to environmental fluctuations and high growth potential. The success of the larval phase is critically determined by feed quality and the stability of the culture environment. This study comparatively evaluated the efficacy of various feed types on the performance of Litopenaeus vannamei postlarvae. A comparison was made between live, frozen, and preserved natural feed (Artemia sp.) and formulated pellet feed in terms of growth, survival rate, and Vibrio bacteria abundance. The results highlighted that frozen Artemia sp. (P2) was significantly superior to other treatments. Postlarvae fed frozen Artemia sp. exhibited the highest growth (length and absolute weight) and survival rate, reaching 78.67%, significantly surpassing the pellet-fed group (K1) with a survival rate of only 60.67%. Furthermore, the Vibrio bacteria abundance in the frozen Artemia sp. fed group was also relatively low compared to the pellet-fed group (13.33 CFU mL⁻¹). Although live and preserved Artemia sp. yielded better results than pellet feed, frozen Artemia sp. remains the most effective feed choice for optimizing early-stage L. vannamei aquaculture.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between zoobenthos diversity, sediment characteristics, and mangrove density in three fishery harbors in Bireuen District: PPI Peudada, PPI Jeumpa, and PPI Jangka. Data were collected using quadrat and line transects with purposive sampling. Peudada showed the highest zoobenthos diversity (H'=0.71) with low dominance (D=0.27) and medium sand substrate. Jeumpa and Jangka were dominated by tolerant species and coarse sand. True mangrove regeneration was more developed in Jeumpa and Jangka, while Peudada was dominated by non-mangrove vegetation. There is a strong relationship between sediment type, zoobenthos diversity, and mangrove structure. Fine sediments favored benthic diversity, while coarse sediments supported mangrove growth. The findings highlight the importance of integrated coastal ecosystem management to sustain ecological functions in fishery ports. Keywords: Bireuen; Coastal Ecosystem; Mangrove; Sediment; Zoobenthos

Abstract

This study was conducted as an initial step in the domestication process of endemic fish in Jambi Province through an artificial feed adaptation approach. In addition, there is little data and research in Jambi Province that systematically discusses and tests artificial feed adaptation as part of domestication. This study aims to analyze the feed adaptation response in the cultivation of sepat fish (Trichopodus pectoralis), tambakan fish (Helostoma temminckii), and betok fish (Anabas testudineus) originating from the public waters of Kota Karang Village, Kumpeh Ulu District, Muaro Jambi as the initial stage of domestication. This study used a completely randomized design) with three treatments and three replicates. The treatments applied were different types of endemic Jambi fish, including sepat fish (T. pectoralis, treatment A), tambakan fish (H. temminckii, treatment B), and betok fish (A. testudineus, treatment C). The fish used in this study were wild fish obtained from public waters in Kota Karang Village, Kumpeh Ulu District, Muaro Jambi Regency. The average initial weight and length of sepat fish were 3.37±0.98 g and 6.32±1.52 cm, tambakan fish 7.65±0.74 g and 8.17±0.59 cm, and betok fish 8.03±1.13 g and 7.57±1.14 cm. Maintenance was carried out for 4 weeks, during which the test fish were fed artificial feed or commercial feed (39% protein). The feeding method was Ad-restricted. Feeding frequency is three times a day, namely in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The results of the study show that the SR value produced is 100% for all treatments. The highest PBM value is found in treatment A (sepat fish) at 1.34 g and the lowest PBM value is found in treatment C (betok fish) at 0.82 g. The highest PPM value was found in treatment A (sepat fish) at 1.12 cm, and the lowest PPM value was found in treatment B (tambakan fish) at 0.39 cm. The highest LPS value was found in treatment C (betok fish) at 6.40%/day, and the lowest LPS value was found in treatment A (sepat fish) at 3.54%/day. In general, the water quality parameters of the maintenance medium were suitable for the growth and survival of freshwater fish.

Abstract

Intensive whiteleg shrimp farming has the potential to degrade water quality through the accumulation of organic matter and nutrients in coastal ecosystems. This study aimed to evaluate differences in water quality between estuarine and marine waters in Bireuen Regency, Aceh, and to associate them with plankton and bacteria as ecological indicators. The research was conducted from July to August 2025 at three estuarine and three marine stations, analyzing physical, chemical, and biological parameters. Results showed that estuarine waters had higher TSS (9–16 mg/L), NH₃ (0.80 mg/L), BOD (4.6–7.1 mg/L), and COD (32–33 mg/L) than marine waters, associated with the presence of Nitzschia spp., Ceratium hirundinella, Brachionus rotundiformis, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. In marine waters, although DO and salinity were more stable, eutrophication indicators included Noctiluca spp., copepods (Acartia, Oithona), V. alginolyticus, and Photobacterium damselae. These findings indicate that estuaries act as pollution hotspots while marine waters are also affected, emphasizing the need for ecosystem-based management of shrimp aquaculture effluents.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the concentration of heavy metals, lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), in sediments and oysters (Bivalvia), as well as to examine their relationship with mangrove ecosystem characteristics in Kuala Ceurape (Bireuen) and Udeung Village (Pidie Jaya). Heavy metal concentrations were analyzed using the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) methods, while mangrove species identification was conducted through field vegetation surveys. The results showed that Pb concentrations in sediments ranged from 3.67–15.29 mg/kg with an average of 7.38 mg/kg in Udeung and 8.65 mg/kg in Kuala Ceurape. Cd concentrations in sediments were higher, ranging from 4.69–11.95 mg/kg (average 7.38 mg/kg) in Udeung and 3.54–11.69 mg/kg (average 8.65 mg/kg) in Kuala Ceurape. In oysters, Pb concentrations were recorded at 4.36–9.53 mg/kg in Udeung and 2.16–6.71 mg/kg in Kuala Ceurape, while Cd showed greater accumulation, reaching 17.07–18.13 mg/kg (average 12.71 mg/kg) in Udeung and 1.96–11.21 mg/kg (average 5.16 mg/kg) in Kuala Ceurape. Compared to FAO/WHO and CCME standards, Pb levels in sediments remained below the threshold, but Pb and Cd in oysters and Cd in sediments exceeded safe limits. Vegetation identification indicated the dominance of Rhizophora apiculata, which plays an important role in heavy metal trapping. These findings suggest that mangrove ecosystems function as natural filters of heavy metals, yet bioaccumulation in edible biota such as oysters may pose potential health risks to coastal communities.

Abstract

Polluted estuaries can result in oxygen depletion, accumulation of toxic substances and heavy metals, and become a source of pathogens that are threaten for cultivated aquatic biota and coastal tourists. This research aims to analyze 1) pollution index; 2) status of water pollution in Bangka Jaya and Tanoh Anoe Regencies; and 3) testing the level of effectiveness of Layered Filtered Treatment (LFT) using analysis of removal efficiency and degradation capacity on water quality. LTF is a filtration media that composed of coconut husk, membrane and coffee grounds made into briquettes, LFT used to filter polluted estuary waters. The pollution parameters analyzed at Bangka Jaya were nitrate, phosphate, Escherichia coli bacteria and ammonia, while the pollution parameters at Tanoh Anoe were heavy metals Pb and Cd. The research results showed that the pollution status of Bangka Jaya estuary (A1) and Bangka Jaya coastal waters (A2) are moderately polluted, with indices at stations A1, A2 and A3 respectively is 9.19; 8.42; and 8.42. Meanwhile, the water pollution status in Tanoh Anoe estuary are heavily polluted (station B1) and moderately polluted (station B2) with the pollution index at each station being 14.07 and 9.36. The conclusion of this research is that LFT has not been proven capable of removing and degrading the pollutant parameters nitrate, phosphate, E.coli bacteria and ammonia, however the LFT method has been proven capable of increasing dissolved oxygen, stabilizing sea acid, temperature and also water salinity. LFT has also been proven to be able to prevent ocean acidification with a degradation capacity percentage of 6.60%.

Abstract

The cultivation of white snapper (Lates calcarifer) holds significant economic and ecological potential. This research was conducted at the Loskala Floating Net Cage (FNC) in Lhokseumawe City. The study aims to describe the ecological conditions of the waters and analyze the health profile of white snapper. The method applied was purposive random sampling at three sampling stations. The bioecological assessment indicates that water parameters are generally suitable for white snapper cultivation; however, elevated temperatures, dissolved oxygen levels approaching the minimum threshold, and biological oxygen demand (BOD) exceeding the standard at several stations have the potential to trigger eutrophication. These conditions correlate with the detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio alginolyticus, which indicate risks to fish health as well as food safety.
