COMPOSITION:
Vibriosis is an important disease problem in hatcheries and shrimp culture ponds. Most of the vibrio sps are part of the autochthonous flora of marine water (Baumann and Baumann, 1981) and therefore the source of infection is suspected to be near shore sea water. The occurrence of mortalities of P.monodon affected with vibriosis is preceded by the dominance of vibro sps. in the pond rearing pond water. Leano etal (1998) reported the vibrio present in the environment can enter in to the shrimp through ingestion of the feed and rearing water which are loaded with large quantities of pathogens. Thus continuous ingestion of bacteria by the shrimp initiates the colonization of the pathogen in the digestive system.
DOSAGE: 5 lt/hectare (OR) as advised by an Aquaculture consultant.
