Abstract Sidoarjo is one of the area impacted directly from sedimentation due to overflow of lapindo mud which resulted in the formation of a new island called Pitu Gajahan. The island is mud, so overgrown with mangroves.

The method used was a survey using a transect quadrants and the interview against the activity of catching fish by local fishermen.
