Abstract

In order to determine the ecological effects of probiotic additive feedings in cultured carp, three probiotic additives, Earth genitor “EG”, Amakusa PX “AP”, and Commercial yogurts“CY” were examined. Relative values of algal growth potential (AGP) against control in “+ EG”, “+ AP”, and “+ CY” groups were observed to be 125%, 120%, and 109%, respectively. Relative values of fecal volume in“+ EG” and “+ CY” groups were 90%, fecal total nitrogen (TN) in “+ EG” group was 95%, and fecal total phosphorus (TP) in “+EG” and “+CY” groups were 79%. The highest elution rates of NH4-N and PO4-P were observed in the “+EG” group. Higher growth rates of carp was obtained in the “+ EG” and “+ CY” groups. Thus, probiotic additive feedings in cultured carp induced the promotion of an ecological cycle in the rearing water.
