Abstract
Aquaculture is one of the basic and fundamental economical leading industry in Asia. The use of probiotics in aquaculture improves efficiency and growth of fish and feed conversion ratio (FCR). Probiotics may also improve fish culture by triggering appetite and improving fish nutrition by which improving the production quality of vitamins. This method (probiotics) also improves the quality of fish nutrition by the breakdown of components which are indigestible and also by detoxification of injurious compounds present in diet. In probiotics method yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) have positive impact of fish performance during fish culturing, especially under stressed conditions. Yeast plays leading improvement in growth and FCR of fish. So, the yeast probiotic method was used to monitor the growth responses of Labeo rohita at different levels yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) probiotic supplemented feed. Fish probiotic yeast supplemented three treatment groups were made (T1: 2.0x1010CFU probiotic, T2 :1.0x1010CFU probiotic while T3 was 2% of their body weight. The growth parameters were recorded for treated fish after fortnightly netting. The results of net weight gain in treatment groups T1 (20.64g) was significantly higher as compared to T2 (18.42g) and T3 (15.82g) groups. Similar results were seen in the average fish fork length (T1:46, T2:40 and T3:28 mm) and total length (T1:55, T2:45 and T3:30 mm).
