| Summary: | A study on the effect of Bacillus subtilis on Macrobrachium rosenbergii culture
was conducted on July 2012 until October 2012 at Wet Laboratory, Block A,
Faculty of Agriculture, Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), Serdang, Selangor. The
aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of probiotic, Bacillus subtilis
on growth performance of Macrobrachium rosenbergii post larvae. The post
larvae of M. rosenbergii with an initial size range between 1.2 to 1.5 cm per post
larva and stocking density of 25 post larva per aquaria was used. The experiment
was carried out with three different treatments which consisted of T1 (control), T2
(commercial pellet feed-107 CFU Bacillus subtilis) and T3 (commercial pellet
feed-1010 CFU Bacillus subtilis). Each treatment was replicated four times and
was conducted in recirculation system in glass aquaria for 12 weeks. The data was
analyzed using One-Way ANOVA by SPSS (Statistical Package for Social
Science) software. The result of growth performance and survival from this
experiment showed that M. rosenbergii post larvae treated with diet T3
significantly different (p<0.05) compared to other treatments. |
