Abstract :

Coral reefs and whole life that exist in this ecosystem is one of the valuable natural resources. Conditions at this reef ecosystems have suffered damage and deterioration caused by blast fishing, fishing by using the toxic materials and illegal coral trade. The natural rehabilitation process on the reef is relatively long and require adequate environmental conditions. One of the efforts to control damage for coral reef ecosystems can be done by using mineral accretion (Biorock). This field work practice was conducted at Pemuteran, Buleleng, Bali province on 14th  January to 14th February 2013. The field work practice’s aim are to identify the branching coral (Acropora sp.) rehabilitation technique by using biorock method and determine the factors that influence the maintenance of coral reefs biorock method. Branching coral (Acropora sp.) rehabilitation techniques with biorock methods done by setting up a framework cathode and anode which will be electrified at 2A per m2. This electrical current will stimulate the electrolysis of sea water resulting in accumulation of CaCO3 in the framework of the cathode. The precipitate of the chalk this up later that would be able to accelerate the growth of corals and coral growth. Based on the results of the fields work practice earned an average rating of high growth of Acropora formosa was 1.0667 ± 0.5033 cm. According to Haris, et al (2011) the measurement of A. formosa at the control tank shows average height of 0.063 cm/month. This suggests that the growth of A. formosa with biorock have faster growth than the coral A. formosa without given of electrified with biorock method.
