The research aims is to analyze the probiotic, water quality, and carrying capacity of vaname shrimp farming in sustainable ponds. The research location was Rhee Royal Vannamei Sumbawa West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The research was carried out from September 2023 to February 2024. Vannamei shrimp were reared for 96 days in a pond area of 3,433±157 m2 at a stocking density of 133±5 shrimp/m2. Cultured probiotics were applied to the pond once every 3 days at a dose of 0.5 ppm in day of culture for 60 days and at a 1-1.5 ppm DOC from 60 to 96 days. The research method was randomized with two treatments and six replications. Carrying capacity was calculated using production carrying capacity. Data collection methods were observation, field, and laboratory measurements. The results showed that the T-test showed that applying probiotics and non-probiotics had no significant effect. Still, the productivity of probiotic plots was more stable and essential than non-probiotic plots. Probiotic plots produced 29.58% more than non-probiotic plots. Probiotics can improve water quality. The carrying capacity is 21,354 kg/ha. Environmental management is essential for the success of sustainable shrimp cultivation in ponds.

The production efficiency of striped catfish Pangasianodon hypophthalmus is very dependent on the quality of feed, which can increase the fish’s growth rate and health condition. Thus, the aimed of this study was to investigate the effects of different levels of Oregano Essential Oil (OEO) contained with thymol and carvacrol, at the concentration level of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4% OEO, which is applied using top-dressing method and included in feed formulation on the growth rate, body composition, digestive health and resistance of striped catfish P. hypophthalmus against the pathogenic bacteria Aeromonas hydrophila. The results of growth trials using top-dressing method for 122 days using formulated feed method for 70 days showed that the application of OEO yielded better growth than the control, with 0.2% OEO providing better growth performance than 0.1 and 0.4% OEO. The body composition analysis results also showed a better level of nutrient absorption in fish fed the OEO-based diet compared to the control. For the number of bacteria in the digestive tract, OEO supplementation can also significantly reduce the number of bacteria compared to fish-fed control feed. The challenge test results after the fish were given treatment feed for 24 days showed that the application of 0.1% OEO provided better protection against Aeromonas hydrophila. However, there was no significant difference with 0.2% OEO. The application of 0.2% OEO can be recommended to increase the efficiency and productivity of catfish cultivation.

Feeding trials were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of commercially available optimized mixtures of monoglyceride blend (MG, as BalanGut® AQ L supplied by BASF, Germany) on growth performance and health condition of Pacific white shrimp Penaeus vannamei. A basal diet was formulated without MG, and four other diets were prepared by supplementing the powder forms of MG at inclusion levels of 0.5, 0.75, 1,0, and 1,5%. In a growth trial, eight replicate groups of shrimps were hand-fed with one of the diets four times daily for 60 days and observed for growth, total hemocyte count (THC), lysozyme activity, and histomorphological conditions of the hepatopancreas of the shrimp. In a challenge test, diseases challenged with Vibrio harveyi infection at a dose of 1 × 105 CFU mL-1 intramuscularly were conducted and then followed with the observation of the cumulative survival rate after 96 h postchallenge, phenoloxidase, the mean percentage of phagocytic activity and phagocytic index on the blood of the shrimp. In the growth trial, shrimps with inclusion levels of 0,75 up to 1,5% of MG showed significantly higher growth performance than the control treatment. The number of THC and lysozyme activity showed an increasing trend with the inclusion of MG at 0.5 up to 1.0% and then declined with the inclusion of 1.5%. The inclusion of MG did not cause any significant changes in the histomorphology of the shrimp's hepatopancreas. In the challenge test, the lowest survival rate after being infected with Vibrio harveyi was found in the control treatment, and the highest survival rate was found in the group of shrimps fed with 1 MG. The phenoloxidase (PO) activity, phagocytic activity, and index were higher in the group of shrimps fed with MG compared to the control treatment. The results of these studies indicate that the dietary supplementation of 0.75 – 1.0 % of MG can improve the growth, health condition, and disease resistance of P. vannamei.

AbstractAquaculture recirculation technology has evolved in recent years, as it can save water use and maintain good water quality during tiger shrimp fry rearing and ultimately increase juvenile production. The recirculation technology in this experiment is expected to be adopted by small‐scale tiger shrimp seed farmers. This study aims to develop the technology for producing a juvenile tiger shrimp recirculation system to support shrimp cultivation in ponds. The recirculation system container comprises a biofiltration tank filled with oysters, seaweed, and tilapia. Containers to keep tiger shrimp larvae alive in the recirculation system use a round‐shaped container with a volume of 2 m3. Tiger shrimp larvae were cared for at; A. density of 2000 individuals/m2; B. density of 1500 individuals/m2; and C. density of 1000 individuals/m2. This study found that the survival rate of tiger shrimp in treatments C and B were high, reaching 96.800b ± 2.716% and 91.62b ± 3.432%, respectively, while survival in treatment A was the lowest, at 81.700a ± 4.715%.

AbstractMost studies evaluating the use of distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) to partially replace the use of soybean meal (SBM) in diets of shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei have been carried out under laboratory conditions, which has significant differences in terms of environmental and culture conditions with the out‐door commercial pond. This study aims to extrapolate the laboratory trials into the out‐door pond condition in order to evaluate the feasibility of incorporating DDGS at various levels (D0 (0%), D5 (5%), D10 (10%), and D 15 (15%)) to replace the use of SBM for 90‐day culture period on the growth, body composition, total hemocyte count, lysozyme activity, and organoleptic characteristics of the shrimp. Seven hundred twenty shrimp (mean initial weight 1.06 ± 0.01 g) were randomly distributed into each of 40 net pens (3 × 2 × 1 per net pen) with 10 replicates per dietary treatment. The results showed an enhancement in biomass, mean weight, and thermal growth coefficient of shrimp fed with 5 and 10% inclusion levels of DDGS. Significant reduction of FCR was also observed with the use of 5 and 10% DDGS to partially replace SBM. There were no severe changes in the total hemocyte count (THC), lysozyme activity, color, aroma, and flavor of the shrimp. However, the texture of shrimp was significantly better with the use of 10 and 15% DDGS in the diet. In summary, regarding all the factors, DDGS is a promising alternative ingredient to replace the use of SBM with 5 and 10% inclusion levels and could modulate better growth, quality, and maintain the health condition of shrimp cultured in out‐door pond conditions.

Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of zinc (Zn)-supplemented diets on the growth, survival, and immunological indices of juvenile Pacific white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei. Four experimental diets were prepared and offered, which were: a non-supplemented basal diet (T1), a diet supplemented with organic Zn at 10 mg/kg (T2), a diet supplemented with organic Zn at 15 mg Zn/kg (T3), and a diet supplemented with inorganic Zn at 45 mg/kg (T4). In the 30-day feeding trial, specific growth rate, weight gain, and survival were significantly higher in shrimp fed T3 diets than in those fed T1 or T2. There were no significant differences in total haemocyte counts observed among the juvenile P. vannamei treated with Zn diets. In addition, dietary Zn supplementation significantly increased phagocytic activity of juvenile P. vannamei. Overall, these results indicate that appropriate dietary Zn has beneficial effects on growth, survival, and immune responses of juvenile Pacific white shrimp.

To assess the feasibility of incorporating insect meal and oil into diets for Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus Vannamei, a trial was conducted to measure growth and feed performance metrics within balanced iso-nitrogenous and iso-lipid (36% protein and 6% lipid) experimental diets formulated with standard commercially sources ingredients. Incremental levels of BSF larval meal (BSFM, 0.5 to 5%) were used to partially substitute the use of fishmeal (FM) in the diet. In addition, next group of dietS were designed by using incremental levels of BSF larval oil (BSFO (0.5 to 5%) with 0.5% BSFM as a reference to partially and completely replace the use of fish oil (FO) within the diet. Ten dietary treatments were evaluated as four replicates in 40 Hapa ponds assigned randomly. Shrimp of initial mean weight of 0.97 g were fed by hand over 90 days with feed intake based on an FCR of 1.5 and all parameters recorded to determine response. Inclusion of up to 5% of both BSF meal and oil improved performance with respect to growth rate and feed utilization efficiency FCR. Total hemocyte counts and lysozyme activity reflected these trends displaying advantages of BSF diet groups compared to the basal fed group of L. Vannamei. After the growth trial, a disease challenge test was undertaken using an infection model with Vibrio harveyi at a concentration of 105 CFU shrimp-1 under controlled laboratory settings. As such, several indices of health status were recorded that included hemocyte counts, lysozyme activity as well as histopathology of the hepatopancreas that is a prime indicator of the progression of disease and a reflection on health status. Insect meal and oil inclusions increased survival from 40% to 60 - 80% and in accordance, raised the immune response and improved histopathological profiles of hepatopancreas tissues.

AbstractA series of treatments were designed to evaluate the efficacy of feeding commercial multispecies probiotics feeding with enzymes and fermentation process on the growth parameters and culture environment of Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931), in an intensive culture system. Commercial multispecies probiotics and enzymes (PEs) were continuously applied in three different doses, namely (i) 0.2, (ii) 0.4, and (iii) 0.6 mg L−1 and designated as 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 PE during the first 30 days of intensive culture of Pacific white shrimp, L. vannamei (Boone, 1931). The probiotics were continually applied every alternate day, while the enzymes were added every sixth day throughout the trial period. The PE dose for all treated tanks was increased by 0.2 ppm after 30 days of culture and another 0.2 ppm after day 60. Meanwhile, fermentation technique, which has become the common method applied in Indonesia in the control treatment, was added on the same day with the PE group with increasing dosage, following the same trend with the 0.6 PE group. Results showed that the group receiving 0.6 PE showed higher final biomass, higher mean weight, and protein retention efficiency as well as a lower feed conversion ratio compared with the control treatment. Abundance of Vibrio spp. remained below 103 cfu mL−1 throughout the trial. Water quality indicators TAN, NO2N and NO3N peaked in weeks 3–5 and then declined after that until the end of the culture period in all tanks. This decline was significantly faster in PE‐treated tanks. Multispecies PEs have potential applications in controlling Vibrio spp., maintaining proper water quality condition, and enhancing the growth of shrimp in intensive culture system.

In the present study, the functional effects of hydrolyzable tannins (HT) extracted from the sweet chestnut tree Castanea sativa were evaluated either by directly incorporating them into the diet or by using a top-dressing application on the growth, body composition, total hemocyte counts, lysozyme activity, and histomorphological condition of the hepatopancreas of Pacific white shrimp Penaeus vannamei. Shrimp was confined in hapa nets installed within commercial outdoor ponds for 90 days. Eight experimental diets included a basal formulated diet (BD) with varying inclusion levels of HT (BD-0%, BD-0.1%, BD-0.2%, and BD-0.3%), a low fish meal (FM) diet with reduction on the inclusion level of FM from 10% to 7.5% and labeled as LFM 0.3% HT, a top-dressing HT application (TC) on basal diet (BDTD-0.4% HT), and a commercial diet (CDTD-0% HT and CDTD-0.4% HT). The final body weight (FBW), percentage weight gain (PWG), thermal growth coefficient (TGC), average daily growth (ADG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were significantly better in the group of shrimp fed with BD-0.3% HT compared to BD-0% HT. The administration of CD-0.4% HT was able to enhance the growth performance of shrimp compared to BD-0% HT and CD without HT. Higher protein and fat contents were found in the body of shrimp fed with graded levels of HT compared to shrimp fed with BD or CD without HT. Numerically, the direct inclusion and top-dressing process of HT increased the total hemocyte count and lysozyme activity in shrimp. Both BDTD-0.4% HT and CDTD-0.4% HT were also able to support a better hepatopancreatic condition with reference to histomorphology and integrity. These results indicated that BD-0.3% HT inclusion could significantly improve the growth performance and prevent the alteration in health and histomorphological condition of the hepatopancreas of shrimp P. vannamei cultured in hapa nets under commercial farm conditions, but also 0.4% HT could be used as a supplementation dosage for the top-dressing process in diets.

A sixty-days feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the inclusion effect of spirulina Arthrospira platensis meal (SM) in the diet on growth and health condition of juvenile Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Four isonitrogenous and iso-lipidic experimental diets were formulated to contain 0%, 0,2%, 0,4% and 0,8% SM. After 60 days, shrimp were sampled and total haemocyte counts was measured. The growth performances of shrimp were significantly affected by the dietary inclusion of SM, whereas the inclusion of SM provides a better biomass, final body weight (FBW), weight gain (WG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) compared to the control group. Additionally, the inclusion of SM significantly enhances the total haemocytes count (THC) and lysozyme activity in shrimp compared to control group. Therefore, SM can be considered as the functional ingredients in shrimp diet to improve the growth and health condition of shrimp.

AbstractThe application of mixed natural extracts from oak (Quercus robur L.) and yucca (Yucca Schidigera) (OY) in an intensive culture system for Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) was able to improve the growth performance of shrimp and the quality of its rearing media. Twelve tanks sized 8 × 8 × 1.3 m were stocked with 500 post‐larvae m−2 per tank and treated with 2, 2.5, and 3 Kg Ha−1 of OY. Physical and chemical water parameters, including pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, and salinity, were measured 4 times day−1 during the trial. Measurements of other chemical parameters, including Ammonia (NH3‐N), Nitrite (NO2‐N), and Nitrate (NO3‐N), were performed the second and sixth day after the addition of OY. The same measurements were conducted in the control treatment every seventh‐day post water exchange during the 90 days of the culture period. The growth performance parameters (biomass, final body weight, feed conversion ratio, survival rate, and percentage weight gain) and nutrient retention rate were evaluated after 90 days of shrimp culture. The utilization of OY significantly increased the final body weight (FBW), percentage weight gain (PWG), feed conversion ratio (FCR), survival rate (%), and the final biomass of shrimp. Different dose applications of OY significantly reduced the accumulation of ammonia (NH3‐N), nitrite (NO2‐N), and nitrate (NO3) in the rearing media compared to the control. However, there were no significant differences in protein, fat, ash, dry fiber, and water content among the shrimp treated with different addition levels of OY. This research concludes that the application of OY could maintain a safe level of ammonia and other nitrogen metabolites in the rearing media and enhance the growth performance of shrimp cultured in intensive production systems using commercial concrete tanks.

This study evaluated the effects of dietary nucleotide supplementation in Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, cultured in Indonesia. A total of 22,500 shrimp receiving diets in which fish meal (FM) had been partially replaced with vegetable protein sources were classified into five study groups (4500 shrimp/group) and received different diets for 110 days: 10FM (control group; 10% FM), 6FM (6% FM—low FM and no nucleotide supplementation), 10FMN (10% FM; 0.1% nucleotides), 8FMN (8% FM; 0.1% nucleotides) and 6FMN (6% FM; 0.1% nucleotides). Growth performance, body composition, total hemocyte count (THC), lysozyme activity, and hepatopancreas histopathology were assessed. Organoleptic evaluation and profitability assessments were also performed. In addition, shrimp resistance to a Vibrio harveyi challenge was studied in shrimps after having received the diets for 30 days. Results showed that reducing FM had a negative impact on growth performance and hepatopancreas morphology. Adding nucleotides resulted in better performance and profitability, a healthier histomorphological appearance of the hepatopancreas, and significantly higher survival rates upon challenge with V. harveyi, while it did not negatively affect organoleptic parameters. In conclusion, nucleotide supplementation could be useful for optimizing performance, profitability, and disease resistance in shrimp cultured under intensive outdoor pond conditions.

One of the problematic factors in the cultivation of vannamei shrimp is the outbreak of bacteria and viruses. One way to prevent infection is by strengthening the shrimp’s immune system. MOTIVTM is a fermented corn protein concentrate that has been reported to possess probiotic properties that can positively increase the disease resistance of shrimp. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of bioactive protein (MOTIVTM) on the total hemocyte count and shrimp survival rate. The study used an experimental method with a completely randomized design with five treatments and three replications: A (commercial feed), B (7.5% MOTIV add of 1.5% krill meal instead of 9% fish meal), C (7.5% MOTIVTM add of 1% krill meal to replaces of 2% poultry meal and 6.5% fish meal), D (7.5% MOTIVTM to replaces of 3.5% poultry meal and 4% fish meal), and E (7.5% MOTIVTM to replaces of 7.5% poultry flour). Feeding was done four times/day based on shrimp biomass and weekly feed counts based on daily shrimp survival. The vannamei shrimp used was one gram with a population density of 15 shrimps/aquarium with an aquarium volume of 100 liters.Total shrimp hemocytes, survival, and water quality were all measured. Treatment C had the highest total hemocyte, averaging 4.1 x 107 cells/mL, whereas treatment B had the lowest, averaging 1.4 x 107 cells/mL. During the trial, only treatment C supported 100% survival.

Abstract This study evaluated the suitability of commercially produced fermented corn protein concentrate (FCPC) known as MOTIV ® (Cargill's IP Product), in replacing fishmeal (FM) and/or poultry by‐product meal (PBM) on growth and health performances of the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei . A 60‐day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the use of five iso‐nitrogenous and iso‐lipidic diets containing 0% FCPC (control), 7.5% FCPC and 1.5% Krill meal (KM) replacing 9% of FM (FCPC 1), 7.5% FCPC and 1% KM replacing 2% poultry by‐product meal (PBM) and 6.5% FM (FCPC2), 7.5% FCPC replacing 3.5% PBM and 4% FM (FCPC3) and 7.5% FCPC to replace 7.5% PBM (FCPC4) on growth performance, total haemocytes count, lysozyme activity, body composition, resistance on acute salinity change, total number of bacteria and histomorphological condition of the hepatopancreas of Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei . At the end of the growth trial, the dietary treatments significantly affect the growth performance of shrimp with better growth obtained in shrimp treated with FCPC 1 and 4 compared to the control treatment. For the non‐specific immune system, the inclusion of FCPC had significantly improved the lysozyme activity of L. vannamei but no significant effect to the total haemocytes counts. Total numbers of bacteria were lower in the hepatopancreas of shrimp fed on FCPC diets compared to the control treatment. In addition, FCPC diets increased survivability of shrimp acute salinity stress compared to the control group. Our findings suggested that FCPC could be used as an alternative for a sustainable approach to replace FM and/or PBM in shrimp diets to have better growth as well as enhancing stress resistances and increasing antibacterial responses of shrimp through enhancing the lysozyme activities in L. vannamei
