Probiotics (Bacillus subtilis and B. cereus) Performances as anti-stress on catfish (Clarias anguilaris) fingerlings during transportation and post-transportation conditions

The study investigated the performances of B. subtilis and cereus on catfish (C. anguillaris) fingerlings as potential anti-stress administered at rate 30 mgl-1. Although, there were fluctuations physico-chemical parameter water during transportation; was no significant difference (p≥0.05) throughout. There differences (p≤0.05) in survival treated with both (97.39±1.0%) (98±0.73%) transportation. cumulative subtilis, before, post-transportation lower (93.92%) than control, but growth gain highest (1.6 g) Specific Growth Rate 0.27g. Fingerlings cereus, recorded 98% survival, having weight length 0.9 g cm specific 0.15% higher control group. So, performed better survivability, while, did performance. pH EC isolates, T OC DO for TDS increased steadily (p≤0.05), while rest values middle transportation, but, all within optimum raising catfish.
