Abstract

To improve the ecological cycle in culture of carp, effects of Probiotic additives on algal growth potential (AGP) and fecal decreasing rates (FDR) were examined. Four experiments of carp culture fed on different amount of probiotic additives, “EARTH GENITOR”, were conducted: Exp-1 for 0% aid as control experiment, Exp-2 for 0.5% aid to the diets, Exp-3 for 2% aid to the diets, and Exp-4 for 5% aid. Higher AGP, 140% were obtained in Exp-3 and -4. Lower AGP, 82 to 100% were observed in Exp-2 and -1, respectively. Exp-2, -3, and -4 showed almost the same FDR, 1.43 to 1.63% per day, which was about two times higher than that of FDR in Exp-1, the control. These results suggest that probiotic additives in diets could mitigate the self-pollution in aquaculture.
