Abstract

Water quality degradation remains a critical challenge in small-scale aquaculture, particularly due to the accumulation of suspended solids and ammonia from feed waste and metabolic excretion. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of a simple, eco-friendly filtration system using natural materials—sand, zeolite, pumice, and coconut fiber—in removing Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and ammonia (NH?–N). Four treatments were tested over a five-day period: P1 (sand and zeolite), P2 (pumice and coconut fiber), P3 (all four materials), and a control (no filter media). Each unit was constructed using low-cost containers and operated under continuous flow conditions. Results showed that P3 consistently achieved the highest removal efficiency, reducing TSS by 82.5% and ammonia by 83.3%. ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests confirmed significant differences (p < 0.05) among treatments. The combination of mechanical, chemical, and bioactive media in P3 enhanced both physical filtration and nitrogen removal. These findings support the application of natural-based filter media as a sustainable, low-cost solution for improving water quality in decentralized aquaculture systems, especially in resource-limited settings

Abstract

Purpose: This community service initiative introduces an innovative solution combining venturi pump system technology and protein skimmer to enhance water quality, production efficiency, and sustainability in round tank-based white shrimp farming. The protein skimmer helps reduce dissolved organic matter and supports the maintenance of dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, both essential for shrimp survival. Methodology/approach: The approach includes participatory planning, Focus Group Discussions, the induction of venturi aerator and protein skimmer combination, socialization and technical training, technology demonstration (including water quality monitoring), partner assistance, and continuous monitoring and evaluation. The implementation partner is CV Nusantara Agro Mandiri, located in Tuban. Results/findings: The technology application led to an average increase in DO by 3 mg/L due to the venturi pump, and a reduction of total dissolved solids (TDS) by 400 mg/L with the help of the protein skimmer. These improvements supported better shrimp growth, with an average daily weight gain of 0.1 grams. Conclusion: Integrating venturi pump and protein skimmer technologies provides an effective means to improve water quality and enhance shrimp growth in round tank systems. This contributes to more stable and sustainable aquaculture environments. Limitations: Wider-scale implementation is required to test the technology under more diverse environmental and water quality conditions. Cost efficiency remains a key concern for broader adoption by farmers. Contribution: This technological combination offers a valuable strategy for improving cultivation environments and enhancing the productivity. Contribution to SDGs: This initiative supports SDG 2: Zero Hunger, SDG 14: Life Below Water, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.

Abstract

Purpose: The 1000 Villages Strategic Service Activity aims at community service activities with this strategic service scheme to introduce household-scale cultivation technology, namely Budikdamber, for millennial generation food houses to support increased food security in Bondowoso Regency. Methodology/approach: This service was carried out in Bondowoso Regency Maes an. These locations are at SMK Negeri 1 Maesan, and the Az Zahra Mosque Youth Secretariat, Pekingan Village. The method for implementing Strategic Service Grant activities is designed using a participatory approach, where both the activity implementer (UB) and the recipient (target partner) are proactive in carrying out service activities. Results/findings: The parameter for success is that the millennial generation has succeeded in increasing their knowledge and practice of fish cultivation through induction of Budikdamber technology, assistance with the Budikdamber system to increase analytical skills in cultivating aquaponic systems, and the process of mentoring water quality management. Conclusion: The community service program was successfully implemented by partner participants as a household-scale aquaculture solution. Its success was demonstrated through their understanding of water quality management based on CBIB principles. Limitations: The study cultivating aquaponic systems, and the process of mentoring water quality management. Contribution: This community service activity is the induction of household-scale aquaculture technology, namely Budikdamber, for millennial home-based food systems to support improved food security in Bondowoso Regency, which was successfully implemented and carried out by the partners.
