Summary: | Probiotic bacteria in larvae rearing is expected to suppress pathogenic bacteria and improve water quality. The research aimed to determine the effectivity of probiotic bacteria containing
Bacillus subtilis
and
B. licheniformis
on larval rearing of purple mud crab
Scylla tranquebarica
to produce crablet. The larvae were stocked in nine units of conical fiber tank, fed Rotifers,
Brachionus plicatilis
, and nauplii
Artemia
sp. The probiotics tested, namely, A). RICA-4, containing the bacterium
Bacillus subtilis
, B). RICA-5 containing
B. licheniformis
, C). A combination of probiotics RICA-4 and RICA-5. The administration of each probiotic with a density of 10
