Design of IoT Based Water Monitoring System (Simonair) For Arwana Fish Cultivation

Abstract

Arwana fish is an ornamental fish that has high aesthetic value and is popular with Indonesian people. Silver Arowana is a type of freshwater ornamental fish originating from Brazil and belonging to the Osteoglossum genus. Problems in arowana fish farming include water quality, disease, nutrition and spawning (breeding). An important problem in enlarging silver arowana fish seeds is one of the maintenance media. Water quality is an external factor that plays a role in supporting fish growth. Water quality management has been one of the inhibiting factors in aquaculture, because it requires time, procedures and several stages to assess aquaculture water quality parameters, so farmers are late in handling the fish which results in death. Monitoring water quality that is practical, efficient and easy according to the development of IOT-based information technology 4.0 is urgently needed by cultivators to control fish in real time so that fish survival can be optimized. The research will be carried out for two years, namely 2022 and 2023. The purpose of the first phase of the research is to create an IOT-based Water Quality Monitoring System (SIMONAIR), while the second stage of research aims to apply the use of SIMONAIR to support the growth of arowana fish. The research was conducted at the Vocational School of IPB and in collaboration with a partner, namely CV Viez Aquatics. Phase 1 research will focus on the manufacture and calibration of SIMONAIR. Phase 2 research The use of the SIMONAIR application on silver arowana fish given different feed treatments. The overall research results are a technology package for silver arowana fish cultivation with high technology for the community or fish farmers
