Abstract :
Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) is one of the most favourite consuming fish and included into ten commodities which becoming target of aquaculture product increase in 2014 is equal to 335 % (KKP, 2010). The production of Tilapia in 2008 is 291,037 ton and increased to 378,300 ton in 2009. The average increase of Tilapia production during the year 2008-2009 is about 29.98%. Therefore, target of Tilapia production is increased from 378,300 ton in 2009 into 491,800 ton in 2010 (KKP, 2010).This research which is about the use of different probiotic in commercial feed toward growth of protein retention and coarse fiber in Tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) will be held on Teaching Laboratory Faculty of Marine and Fisheries in June 2013.Probiotic is a live microbial agent which able to give advantage to its host by modifying microbial community by associating to its host, improving nutritional value of feed utilization, improving host response toward the disease, and improving threshold environmental quality (Verschuere et al. 2000). The working process of probiotic bacteria is producing enzymes which function is to accelerate digestion process of the fish. One of the probiotic bacteria is Lactobacillus sp. This bacteria is a kind of proteolytic bacteria that can break down protein into amino acid (Fardiaz, 1992). The amino acid is used for bacteria to multiply, so that, it can increase feed protein and decrease coarse fiber (Schiegel and Schmidth, 1985). The application of probiotic can be added to fish feed or culture tank and pond, in order to prevent infection or pathogen attack. It is also often gain advantage in terms of nutrition, especially when applied to the filter feeder organisms (Verschuere et al., 2000)
