ABOUT : GUIDING FOR TRADING CORAL

TRANSPLANTATION

NUMBER : SK.09/IV/Set-3/2008

DATE : 29 Januari 2008

I. INTRODUCTION A. Background

The total number area of water in Indonesia is 5,1 million km2, including Indonesia Exclusive Economic Zone (IEEZ) 2,7 million km have a high various natural diversity. One of the natural diversity exist in the sea is corals. The total number of hard corals in Indonesia is 590 species, dominated by the coral from genus Acropora (91 species), Montipora (29 species) and Porites (14 species).

Today’s condition of the coral has faced the destruction and decreasing number which are caused by the blast fishing using poisoned material and illegal coral trade. Based on the research done by Oceanography Research Centre- LIPI in 2002, from 556 spread location in Indonesia shows that 6,83% in a very good condition and 25,72% in a good condition, 36,87% in fair condition, and 30,58% in a poor or destructive condition (Suharsono & Gianto, 2003).

Coral reef is a biota from Scleractina ordo which is unprotected by the regulation, but in trading this product, it includes in the list of Appendix II CITES, where the trade of coral reef is done based on quota mechanism stated by General Director of Forestry Protection and Natural Conservation as the Management authority CITES after getting the consideration/ recommendation from LIPI as the Scientific Authority CITES in Indonesia.

In order to overcome the problem of coral destruction in their natural habitat and in order to find the alternative effort to decrease the pressure of natural resources exploitation, it is advisable to do the effort in many ways, some of them are by developing artificial coral, closing area technique, coral translocation, and coral mariculture.

Since 2002, Directorate of Forestry Protection and Natural Conservation have obligated the company which has done harvest corals from the nature to do the coral reef transplantation. This policy should be stated in their company license. Today, the respond to the effort of coral mariculture has developed continuously. Besides the internal control from the UPT KSDA as a unit in natural Conservation technique and independent control of Indonesian Coral Reef Working Group (ICRWG) done continuously especially in utilizing the coral mariculture.

Coral reef transplantation is an effort in order to multiply the coral colony using fragmentation method where the colony is taken from the certain main colony. The purpose of coral reef transplantation is to speed the regeneration from the corals which can be traded and to enhance the quality of coral habitat. The coral mariculture activity is an effort to develop natural based population or habitat to get offspring production which can be harvested continuously.

It is aware that the coral mariculture activity is a big investment, so it needs a clear guide and conception and supported by scientific references and comprehensive practice as well in the field in pouring its legality aspects. It is hoped that a strong and transparent regulation supported by stakeholders can give optimum result in legal administration and conservation technical activity of various kinds of coral for that purpose The Directorate of Natural Diversity Conservation- the Directorate of Forestry Protection and Natural Conservation has arranged: “The Guide of Traded Coral mariculture”

B. Purpose

1. Getting coral mariculture as the result of transplantation/propagation in a guaranteed number and quality for the shake of utility and trade in order to decrease the direct pressure of the natural population.

2. Getting a kind of certain and legal administration physically that the utility of coral maricultureis from the transplantation/propagation activity.

C. Boundary and Comprehensiveness

1. Transplantation is an effort to multiply by propagation and enlarge the plants and wild animals by giving special attention on the purity of the species.

2. Enlarging is an effort to maintain and enlarge the main seed and the offspring of the plants and wild animals from the nature by keeping the purity of its species.

3. Coral mariculture is an activity to multiply the number of coral colony through the fragmentation of specimen from the natural habitat or other natural resources by attaching the fragment on the artificial medium and grow it on natural habitat or artificial habitat.

4. Coral fragment is the cutting of coral with special size which are ready to be transplanted.

5. Substrate/base is an artificial medium where the coral fragment transplantation attached.

6. Coral colony is a group of coral animals arranged by more than one coral polyp from the similar species which become a skeleton.

7. Tentacle is coral polyp arms which function to catch the food and clean themselves.

8. Coral is a hard coral, and it is a hollow animal which has lime as the owner and the former of coral.

9. Tagging is giving a sign physically on the certain part of plants species or wild animals and the result of them either in the transplantation result or enlarging.

10. Seed or first main seed is an individual or coral colony taken from the natural habitat or individual coral as a transplantation result which will use as seed / the main seed of transplantation.

11. Main seed is the second main seed of transplantation of coral fragment picked up from the result of enlarging process to be enlarged later. 12. Offspring is an individual coral as transplantation result from the main

seed fragment which is prepared to trade from the transplantation result.

13. Technical Assistance Unit of Natural Resources Conservation (UPT KSDA) is an organization which will do the activity technically includes KSDA board, KSDA Sub board under the responsibility of the General Director of Forestry Protection and Natural Conservation.

II. CORAL

BIOECOLOGY

A. Coral Bio ecology

According to Nybakken (1988) the coral colony is a group of millions lime polyps (CaCO3) which has outside skeleton which is called coralit. There are spectums which form partition used as a guide in stating the kinds of coral. Coral polyp has mouth located on the upper part and function as arse, tentacles used to catch the victims and to clean their body as well. The body of coral polyp consists of 2 layers, epidermis and endodermis, separated by mesoglea layers. In endodermis layers, lives single cell of algae simbion, called zooxanthella, through photosynthetic process can give organic substance and then it translocated to the coral net. The food absorbs will be digested by the special filament (mesenteri) and the food residual will be exposed through the mouth.

The living coral associated to another biota. In this association the coral has a role as a producer and consumer. It is caused by the coral does the mutual benefit with the zooxanthellae and result of organic substance, besides coral eats plankton to fulfill their living needs.

The coral propagation process is in vegetative way and done by forming new buds. The bud is differenciated into intratentacular sproat, that is the formation of new individual inside the old individual and extra tentaculer is the formation of new individual outside the old individual.

Based on the coral life form, so the coral variation is divided into 6 types: (see table 1), they are:

1. Branching type. 2. Massive type 3. Encrusting type 4. Tabulate type 5. Foliose type. 6. Mushroom type

Table 1 Coral type based on their morphology and the pictures as sample No. Coral Types Morphology Sample Picture 1 Branching Having branch with the

size of branch longer than the thickness or their diameter.

2 Massive Having hard colony

and round formation in general, the surface is smooth and massive; they have varied size from the egg size till the house size.

3 Encrusting The coral grows in spread ways and covers the surface of coral, having rough and hard surface with small pores.

4 Tabulate The coral grows like a table formation with wide and flat surface and supported by pole which is the part of the colony.

5 Foliose The coral grows as

sheets formation on the based of the net, small size and folded round formation.

6 Mushroom The coral consists of one polyp in oval formation and look like mushroom, having many septums like a back of hill and it flows from the side to the center.

C. Coral habitat

In general coral habitat in the islands with much clear beach water area, high oxygen capacity, free of sedimentation and pollution, and free from exceeding fresh water, more than 95 % of islands in Indonesia surrounded by coral. The spread of coral generally found in the water area bordered by the surface which has 20° C. The coral usually associated with small and medium islands. The bigger islands and the continent are less supported for the life of coral, because of the high sedimentation, polluted and low salinity caused by the river flow to the sea. The islands which far from the beaches and located in the remote place support the coral reef grow well and spread widely. The spread of the coral net in Indonesia is represented well along the beaches of west Sumatera, the Indonesia island, East of Indonesia and South beaches of Java. The surrounding factors influence the growth and continual life of coral as follows:

1. Temperature.

The optimum temperature needed for the growth of coral is around 26 - 30° C.

2. Light

The light intensity influences much for the life of coral especially on the process of photosynthesis of Zooxanthella where the product then contributed to the polyp of coral.

3. Water turbidity

Turbidity will cause the hindrance of light intensity penetration to the water, so it will disturb the process of photosynthesis of Zooxanthella.

4. Salinity

Salinity influences the life of coral, because of the osmosis pressure on the net life. The optimum salinity for the life of coral is around 30-35 o/oo.

5. Substrate

Coral Planula needs hard substrate and free from mud, this substrate has a role as a place of coral planula stick, and then it will grow into the coral and form the strong community.

The flow of water mass is tide and or important waves for the transportation of material, larvae, sediment material and oxygen, besides the tide and or wave may clean the coral polyp and the sticky dirt. That’s why the coral lives in the wavy area or has strong tide grows better than in the protected and calm wave.

III. CORAL MARICULTURE

A. Kinds of Coral mariculture.

The kinds of coral which can be transplanted is kinds of coral listed on the quota stated by The General Director of Forest Protection and Natural Conservation (attach. 1).

Species of coral as the production of transplantation that can be traded stated by considering the biology properties of the coral and the environment condition, and also the result of the research and trial. The species stated can be seen on attachment 2 and it can be evaluated according to their development.

The new proposal about the development for adding the types / species / genus that can be traded as the result of transplantation out of attachment 2, must be proposed first and addressed to the Director of Conservation and Natural Variety by completing the data, as log book (about the coral background, data about the growth rate, death rate, stock available) and documentation in photos and or video. The proposal approved by the Director of Conservation and Natural Variety after getting the recommendation of Oceanography Research Center – LIPI

B. The Origin of Coral Seed Transplantation.

Kinds, total number, and location for coral seed plantation comes from the fragment of natural main coral (picture1), getting by eliminating the taken quota and export quota stated annually by General Director of Forestry Protection and Natural Conservation.

For certain species unquoted on the taking quota from the nature ca be taken from the location around the transplantation business or another location having total number and species stated by the General Director of Forest Protection and Natural Conservation after getting recommendation from Oceanography Research Center – LIPI.

Instead of Nature, seed can also come from the fragment of coral offspring as the product of transplantation (picture 2) available and has prepared before. For seed / main coral either from the transplantation business itself or other transplantation business after controlling and checking and also getting the license from the head of local KSDA unit.

C. The size of Coral mariculture

The seed of coral mariculture comes from the nature for the main coral or fragment of natural main coral (picture 1) which has maximum height or diameter of 10 cm.

Fragment which will be used for coral offspring as the product of transplantation (picture 2) comes from the fragment of main coral, and the size is fitted to the need of creativity of the doer of the business itself.

D. The Location Choice for Coral Transplantation

Some criteria as consideration in choosing location, as follows:

1. Transplantation location is outside conservation area and tourist resort as well.

2. The location is not a small port for fishermen and industrial area. 3. The location is a coral habitat and relatively protected by waves.

4. The water base is relatively flat / shallow with sand substrate and coral community.

5. It won’t dry when the water is very low.

6. Having water quality in accordance with the need of coral growth will be transplanted.

7. It is inside the artificial habitat using certain technology.

E. Structure and Infrastructure

Structure and infrastructure needed in transplantation are: 1. Holding storage for acclimate in proper number needed. 2. Working place either in the water or on the land.

3. Having the transportation (water/land) and handling facilities. 4. Transplantation equipments.

5. Cleaning equipments.

6. Diving equipments/basic equipments.

7. Transplantation shelves / table for main coral or the offspring and other equipments.

8. Basic substrate for transplantation.

F. Technical Knowledge of Coral mariculture.

Knowledge needed for the success of coral mariculture activity are: 1. Coral Surrounding.

2. Transplantation technique. 3. Administration and license.

G. Technical Preparation for Coral Plantation 1. The choice of coral seed.

a. The seed should be in healthy condition.

b. The coral taken is free from other organism attachment (as sponge). It is to avoid other unnecessary biota taken together. c. It is advisable that the coral seed is taken from nearest location

of transplantation or from another area, or from the offspring production of transplantation, but it must be completed with supported document.

d. In taking the seed which come from the species and location stated is not quoted in the quota stated, it must pay attention on the coral potency in the nature / natural habitat through a research or survey of stock assessment.

2. The transportation of mariculture’s coral seed.

The seed transportation is done effectively and efficiently by considering the travel distance, to avoid the death and destruction of coral.

3. Substrate/ base

Substrate / base is a media for coral fragment that will be transplanted, it is made similar to the real habitat in nature. The most important thing to be done is the choice of substrate / base material which is stands long in the sea water so it will be a good coral fragment media.

Substrate/base used in coral mariculture consists of:

a. Substrate/base for main coral is in a round shapes with the diameter of 10 – 15 cm or in square shape with the length and width about 10 – 15 cm with 3 cm thick. Substrate from cement is suggested.

b. Substrate/base for the coral offspring based on the size, shape and material are free according to the exporters improvisation using recycle material

4. Attachment of coral mariculture on the substrate.

The attachment of coral mariculture must be strong and can be done practically using recycle materials. (The sample is on picture 3).

The attachment of coral can be differing for the shake of trading and breeding. The amount of breeding is fitted to the plan of quota/ production of offspring annually to be traded.

Picture 3. Attaching and signing coral as the product of transplantation

5. Tagging/Labeling

Giving sign on the coral mariculture has purpose to making different the coral from nature and transplantation also to control monitors them easily.

Signs used are permanent label and it is done together with attaching process of coral on the substrate / base in fixed and tight condition. (It is regulated on Forestry Minister Statement number 355/Kpts-II/2003 about the signing of specimen of plant and wild animals.

Label can be made from hard / strong plastic or other water proof materials using clear writing as shown in picture 4

6. Transplantation table

Shelve / table of transplantation is a media to put the main coral and the offspring visually and it is done to differ the way of separating the place of shelf between the main and offspring coral.

The dimension of table and the place to put it must be proper in order to do the control easily, and also the maintenance, the amount calculation for each species. In general, and it is today’s practice that the dimension of the table is 1 x 1 m. In every table only one kind of species recommended. The material used to make shelf and table are steel, plastic pipe, aluminum, or other recycle materials.

7. The Placement of fragment on the shelves.

The distance to place between the fragments is fitted according to kinds and the size of coral (main or offspring), so there will be no aggregation among the coral physically. To place the main coral on the shelf of 1 x 1 m is 16 pieces maximum. While placing the offspring on the shelf of 1 x 1 m the maximum number is 100 pieces.

H. Maintaining the coral mariculture

The fragment cleanliness and the surrounding should be kept well to reduce the death rate. The doer of the transplantation must do some notes, as follows:

1. Total amount and species of main coral planting and the offspring (note on the planting consensus see on attach. 5)

2. The total number of offspring harvested. 3. The death rate of main and offspring coral.

4. The observation of coral growth by doing the control and measurement as seen on picture 5.

I. Production Plan and Harvest of Coral mariculture 1. Production Plan

The offspring traded related to species and total number of production produced by each unit of transplantation business stated on the production plan.

Production plan is based on the number of offspring verified by local UPT KSDA with ICRWG or universities and or Indonesian Coral, Shell and ornamental fish Association (AKKII) by looking at the progressing report of coral mariculture business every month.

The production plan is sent to the Directorate of Natural Diversity Conservation and sends the carbon copy back to the local UPT KSDA at least at the first week of September on the previous year as a basic to state the quota on each unit of transplantation business.

2. Harvesting

Unit of transplantation business which will do the harvest should send the proposal to the local UPT KSDA in order to do the checking of harvest and covered in BAP of harvesting (sample can be seen on attach. 6). The kinds of offspring to be harvested are fitted to the length of harvest as seen on attach. 2.

J. Packing and Transporting the Transplantation Coral Production

Handling the product of coral mariculture from the location to the destination should be proper in order to reduce the damage and the coral death.

Every company who wants to send the product of coral mariculture should have the media of storage to do the well packing according to the regulation applied.
