Abstract
Evaluation of probiotics, Bacillus firmus and B. coagulans against Aeromonas hydrophila in axenic common carp larviculture was conducted. The highest egg hatching rate was obtained from the axenic system + probiotic bacteria (AP) (98.33%), followed by axenic system (A) (96.67%); axenic system + probiotic + A. hydrophila (AC) (93.33%); non-axenic system (NA) (93.33%); and axenic system + A. hydrophila (AH) (83.33%). 100% survival rate (SR) was obtained from all treatments, except AH (90%). The highest weight (0.013g) was obtained from the A treatment, followed by AC (0.0127g), AP (0.0123g), AH (0.012g), and NA (0.005g). In conclusion, the axenic system can be used to improve common carp larviculture, and further use of B. coagulans and B. firmus was able to control Aeromonads syndrome during the larviculture stage.
