“…This was attributed to the water quality improvement by the bacterial inoculations, due to degradation of organic matter. In accordance with our results, there are also reports of enhancement in shrimp performance when probiotics are used as feed additives (Wang et al, 2005;De Souza et al, 2012;Silva et al, 2012). The SGR of P. vannamei was observed to be maximum in S. cerevisiae treated group (10.6±0.03%) followed by Bs>Lc>Lr>Sb>Ent>Cp (Table 1).…”

The use of antibiotics in aquaculture can prevent certain diseases, however, its use is highly restricted due to several environmental and human health problems like development of antibacterial resistance. Probiotics are widely used for improving production of aquatic animals by means of improving water quality as well as by nutritional and immune modulation in animals thus, helping in preventing diseases. The present study was aimed to evaluate different strains of probiotics viz., a commercial probiotic, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus sp., Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii on the growth, microbial load and immunomodulatory performance of the Pacific white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei. Seven probiotic feeds each containing 5 x 10 9 CFU ml -1 of respective probiotics kg -1 of feed were prepared by top coating on a pellet feed containing 35% protein and duration of the experiment was 75 days. All of the 6 selected strains of probiotics except the commercial one influenced the growth significantly when fed to the shrimp, compared to control group. Specific growth rate (SGR), average daily growth (ADG) and survival rate were observed to be higher in probiotic fed groups. Maximum growth was recorded in S. cerevisiae fed groups (8.05±0.21 g), followed by B. subtilis (7.65±0.21 g), while the control animals showed an average growth of 4.85±0.49 g with percentage improvement in the range of 50-95% when compared to all other treatments. Total heterotrophic count significantly (p<0.05) increased in the rearing water of B. subtilis treated group (8.995± 0.021 x 10 3 cfu ml -1 ) when compared to that of control (5.475± 0.003 X 10 3 cfu ml -1 ) and total vibrio load was greatly reduced in B. subtilis (1.42 ± 0.04 x 10 3 cfu ml -1) and S. cerevisiae (1.47 ± 0.01 x 10 3 cfu ml -1 ) treated water compared to control (4.265 ± 0.06 x 10 3 cfu ml -1). Non-specific immunity in terms of total haemocyte count (THC) was found to be significantly (p<0.05) higher in B. subtilis (12.4±0.8 10 6 cells ml ) treated groups. The probiotic effect was found to be beneficial for better growth and immunomodulation, which was however found to be strain-specific.

“…vannamei [44,48], P. monodon [51], F. paulensis [15,46], F. brasiliensis [37,52] and F. setiferus [34]. The primary advantage observed is related to a better nutrition by continuous consumption of biofloc, which might positively influence grow-out performance a posteriori [53], but was not always the case [54].…”

ABSTRACT. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of stocking densities on productive performance of the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii in biofloc system. Experimental tanks (microcosms) with 0.20 m² area were used as experimental units. The tanks were connected to two 300 L matrix tanks (macrocosm) with biofloc technology, used as recirculating units. M. rosenbergii juveniles, with an initial weight of 0.315 ± 0.06 g and initial length of 33.34 ± 2.26 mm, was randomly distributed in the experimental tanks at different stocking densities (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 ind m -²) and reared during 60 days. The total biomass at the end of the experiment was significant higher (P < 0.05) with the use of higher stocking density (250 ind m -2 ). However, prawns stocked at the density of 50 m -2 showed significant higher (P < 0.05) survival (73%) and significantly lower values (P < 0.05) for feed conversion rate (1.28). The different stocking densities evaluated did not affect the weight and length of prawns. The recommended density for growing M. rosenbergii in the biofloc system is 50 ind m -2 .
