Efficacy of an algine-based immunomodulator, Ergosan was tested on growth and survival of early larval stages (nauplii – PL3) of Indian white shrimp, Fenneropenaeus indicus in fibreglass tanks (10,000 l) for two larval rearing cycles. Larvae fed on a diet with Ergosan were considered as treatment and those fed on a diet without Ergosan as control. Both control and treatments were replicated in five tanks and arranged in a completely randomized design. Significant difference (P < 0.01) in survival was observed between control and treatment. However, growth of larvae was not influenced by the supplementation of Ergosan. Total colony forming units, yellow, green Vibrio and luminescent bacterial colonies were found to be significantly decreased in treatment tanks. Thus Ergosan was found to be a safe immunomodulator for improving larval survival and reducing bacterial load in rearing water.Keywords

The effect of a synthetic source of astaxanthin, Lucantin on colour, loose shell/soft shell quality, taste and black spot formation of Indian white shrimp, Fenneropenaeus indicus, was studied. Supplementary feed incorporated with Lucantin red and pink at 250 ppm was fed for a period of 45 days prior to harvest. Shrimp fed with the normal feed were considered as control. Shrimp colour and quality were assessed after 15, 30 and 45 days of Lucantin feeding. Significant difference in colour was noticed between control and treatment, whereas no significant difference was observed in loose shell/soft shell and black spot formation. Lucantin is found to be a safe feed additive to improve colour in F. indicus.Keywords
