Each treatment group was randomly assigned triplicate nets 40 fish (initial body weight 35.04 ± 0.01 g) in 12 tanks for 56 days. Fish were fed four diets, including a CON–CON diet (with no supplementation) CON–Ba (basal + 1 10 7 CFU/g B. amyloliquefaciens ), MO‐CON 10% Moringa oleifera ) MO‐Ba until apparent satiation (2 meals/day).

Marine shrimp farming, mainly Penaeus monodon and Litopenaeus vannamei, is an important component of the aquaculture industry. farming help in producing protein source for human, providing job opportunity, generating lucrative profit investor. Intensification practices will lead to poor water quality, stress, lacking nutrition among farmed marine shrimp, with consequences disease outbreaks production, impeding development farming. Antibiotic common short-term solution overcome problems Moreover, negative impacts using antibiotics on public health environment cannot gain consumer confidence products. Recently, research phytobiotic as a prophylactic agent has been hot topic. Various phytobiotics have explored reveal their beneficial effects species.
