Author(s): Cienfuegos Martínez Kathia, Monroy Dosta María del Carmen, Hamdan Partida Aida, Castro Mejía Jorge y and Becerril Cortes Daniel

Abstract: The review was made with results obtained in fish and crustacean culture with probiotics and Biofloc system culture. The importance of bacteria in aquaculture production systems was discussed and showed the advances in probiotics and Biofloc system application, separately and in combination. But it is necessary to increase studies on implicit associated bacterial communities, also the variations of this community throughout production process and especially, probiotic addition to displace microbiota. Microbiome studies could show a better general view of abundance, diversity and bacterial ecological function in fish and crustacean culture.
