Abstract

The survival and growth of shrimp is key constraints that influence the shrimp aquaculture. Good growth and high survival rate of shrimp endorse higher shrimp production rates. As the culture period progress water quality of the pond changes due to the metabolic activities carried out by the animal. All these parameters should be maintained at optimum levels for higher survival and growth rates. Though several pond probiotics has been launched in the market search for isolation of potent probiotic bacteria with suitable pond application is a never ending process. The isolated potential probiotic bacterial strains are applied in the shrimp ponds to observe their influence on the water quality variables. To make sure the secure applicability of the isolated probiotics, a preliminary examination was done on Litopenaeus vannamei by screening their average body weight and percentage of survival. Litopenaeus vannamei showed a significant increase in body weight and the survival rate in the probiotic treated ponds than the control ponds. The field experiments proved that the probiotic bacteria treated ponds showed better water quality than the control ponds; this indicated that the isolated probiotic bacteria were capable of inducing a positive effect on the prawn health. it is was concluded that the isolated bacteria were capable of exerting probiotic properties and field studies of the four probiotic bacterial isolates confirmed that they can be safely applied to the prawn culture ponds.
