Bacteriophages, or phages, which are viruses with specifically restricted tropism for bacteria, have regained interest in the last few decades as alternative therapeutic agents against antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria animals and humans worldwide. In this context, bacteriophage therapy has been developed to treat bacterial infections of cultured fish, shellfish, crustaceans.

Aquaculture is the fastest-growing food production sector. However, it faces significant challenges, including demand from a growing global population, which estimated to reach 10.4 billion by year 2100, disease outbreaks, environmental impacts, and overuse of antibiotics. To address these issues, sustainable alternatives such as use microorganisms (probiotics, bacteriophages, genetically modified microorganisms) have gained attention. This review examines effects on fish aquaculture, focusing their potential improve growth, health, resistance while reducing impacts. Probiotics, particularly lactic acid bacteria yeasts, been shown enhance immune responses, digestive enzyme activity, nutrient absorption in fish. Bacteriophages offer promising alternative antibiotics for controlling bacterial pathogens, with studies demonstrating efficacy mortality rates infected Additionally, (GMMs) explored ability produce beneficial compounds, enzymes antimicrobial peptides, can health reduce need chemical treatments. Despite potential, challenges regulatory hurdles, public acceptance, risks must be addressed. highlights importance further research optimize aquaculture underscores role promoting practices. By integrating biological tools, industry move towards more environmentally friendly future.

ABSTRACT Aquaculture is essential for meeting future demands food, yet it faces significant losses from infectious bacterial diseases. has recently been critically imperiled by the emergence of multi‐drug‐resistant bacteria, as relies significantly on use antibiotics prevention and treatment. The multidrug‐resistant bacteria poses a critical threat to aquaculture, which heavily Bacteriophage (phage) therapy regained attention with spread drug‐resistant bacteria. Phages are viruses that specifically infect archaea. As promising therapeutic strategy aquatic diseases, phage offers strong specificity, low resistance potential, rapid metabolism, ease development, cost‐effectiveness. In this review, we discuss advantages, opportunities, challenges therapy, summarizing status research highlighting emerging technologies aimed at enhancing in aquaculture. Finally, review looks future, identifying scientific technological advances necessary establish viable universal alternative
