• Pemuteran is well-known for its community-based coral reef conservation activities utilising Biorock technology, through the application of low voltage electricity. The main objective of this research is to assess the condition of coral reefs and fish communities within the Biorock area in Pemuteran, Bali. Data collection was implemented in June 2016 at the bleaching event, employing the Point Intercept Transect (PIT) method, and the Underwater Visual Census (UVCs) method. The benthic community composition at both research stations was dominated by dead coral with algae (Biorock Pemuteran 48.9%, Menjangan Island 51%). Both research locations exhibited branching coral and massive coral as the predominant coral lifeforms. Observational findings reveal noticeable differences in the community structure of coral fish between Biorock Pemuteran and Menjangan Island waters. A total of 11,260 individuals covering 120 fish species across 21 families. Higher fish abundance in Menjangan Island (1,326 ± 224 ind/250 m 2 ) compared to Biorock Pemuteran (551 ± 235 ind/250 m 2 ). The condition of coral reefs at both research locations is included in the poor category (0 – 24.9%). The reef fish community in both Biorock Pemuteran and Menjangan Island is in a stable condition with low dominance level and a moderate to high diversity.
