Shrimp liver pale, swollen, easily broken under light pressure?
80% of mass mortality cases involve the hepatopancreas. Early detection + correct protocol can save the entire pond.
Weak hepatopancreas in shrimp is usually caused by EHP parasitism, Vibrio-induced inflammation, or environmental toxins (NH3, aflatoxin). Signs: pale liver, atrophy, reduced appetite, slow growth. Recover with HERB GUARD (herbal liver protection) combined with FLASH (EHP suppression) and CLEVER (Vibrio control) for 7-10 consecutive days.
Quick Summary
Main Causes
- Mycotoxins from poor feed
- Antibiotic overuse
- EHP parasitism
Signs
- accumulate and damage liver
- destroys liver detox function
- occupies liver cells, causes lipid loss
Solutions
- Reduce feed 50% immediately
- Use HERB GUARD high dose 10-15ml/kg feed + splash 1kg/1,000m³
- Add LIVER GRO

How to identify hepatopancreas problems in shrimp?
Check by gently pressing the liver: healthy liver is dark brown, firm, doesn't break. Weak liver is pale (yellow/white), swollen, breaks easily under light pressure, lipid loss (no oil when pressed). Check weekly.
Shrimp liver is pale but still eating, should I treat?
Treat immediately. Pale liver is an early sign — if delayed, shrimp will stop eating and die en masse. Add HERB GUARD + LIVER GRO immediately, reduce feed 30% to relieve liver workload.
How is AHPND/EMS different from regular weak liver?
AHPND is caused by V. parahaemolyticus causing acute liver necrosis — shrimp die fast in 2-3 days, liver shrinks, empty gut. Regular weak liver progresses slower. AHPND needs disinfection + antibiotics, regular weak liver uses herbal recovery.
Do antibiotics damage shrimp liver?
Yes. Antibiotic overuse destroys the liver's detox function. After antibiotics, supplement HERB GUARD + LIVER GRO to recover liver. Never use antibiotics preventively.
How long does shrimp liver take to recover after treatment?
With HERB GUARD + LIVER GRO + HEPA PRO protocol, liver color usually improves in 5-7 days, full recovery in 14-21 days. Maintain HERBAL GOLD long-term to prevent relapse.
How do feed mycotoxins affect shrimp liver?
Mycotoxins (aflatoxin, ochratoxin) from poor feed accumulate in liver, causing inflammation, tissue necrosis, reduced detox function. HEPA PRO absorbs mycotoxins + protects liver cells.
