Special boosters for prawn culture are supplements or additives designed to enhance the growth, health, and survival of prawns in aquaculture systems. These boosters can be broadly categorized into the following types:
1. Growth Enhancers
- Protein Supplements: High-protein feeds or supplements like fishmeal, soy protein, and shrimp meal improve growth rates.
- Amino Acid Boosters: Additives like methionine and lysine promote efficient feed conversion.
- Enzyme Additives: Enzymes like protease, lipase, and amylase help improve nutrient absorption.
2. Immune Boosters
- Probiotics: Strains like Bacillus, Lactobacillus, and Saccharomyces enhance gut health and immunity.
