Abstract

Studies have shown that the presence of Tilapia hornorum hybrid has antibacterial effect against luminous bacteria. The present study aims to determine the effect of different fish species such as grouper, milkfish and tilapia in polyculture with shrimp on the growth of luminous bacteria. Results showed that stocking of tilapia Oreochromis niloticus hybrid and grouper Epinephelus coioides at a biomass of 500 g/m 3 efficiently inhibited the growth of luminous bacteria in shrimp (biomass = 80 g/m 3) rearing water and positively affected shrimp survival. Results also showed that the presence of milkfish Chanos chanos at a biomass of 500 g/m 3 did not inhibit the growth of luminous bacteria in shrimp (biomass = 80 g/m 3) rearing water.
