Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the most damaging pathogen in shrimp farming — causing EMS/AHPND acute hepatopancreas necrosis. When shrimp suddenly stop eating with rapidly increasing scattered mortality → disinfect immediately with VIRO TRAP, seed SOILMAX New after 24h, feed CLEVER + FLASH to suppress Vibrio. One day delay can lose the entire pond.

Quick Summary

Main Causes

  • V. parahaemolyticus
  • Total Vibrio density exceeds threshold
  • Dirty pond bottom, organic sludge

Signs

  • causes EMS/AHPND, acute hepatopancreas necrosis
  • microbial imbalance in pond
  • ideal environment for Vibrio

Solutions

  • Disinfect water with VIRO TRAP 1kg/1,000m³ or POWER GLUTA 1L/1,500m³
  • After 24h
  • Feed CLEVER + FLASH
Treatment

Complete 5-step protocol

Stabilize → Cut pathogen → Recover internally

1
Disinfect water

Disinfect water with VIRO TRAP 1kg/1,000m³ or POWER GLUTA 1L/1,500m³

2
Reseed microbes

After 24h — apply SOILMAX New to restore beneficial microbes

3
Feed-based Vibrio cut

Feed CLEVER + FLASH — suppress Vibrio from inside the gut

4
Boost immunity

Boost immunity with AQUAMOS + BETAGLUCAN GRO

5
Maintain

Maintain probiotics every 3-5 days — control Vibrio density

Results

Expected Results

1-2 days

Acute symptoms reduce, shrimp stabilize

3-5 days

Clear improvement, shrimp resume eating

7-14 days

Full recovery, maintain with regular probiotics

Frequently Asked Questions

What Vibrio CFU level is dangerous?

Total Vibrio above 10⁴ CFU/mL in pond water and green Vibrio (V. parahaemolyticus) above 10² CFU/mL is the warning level. Disinfect immediately with VIRO TRAP or POWER GLUTA when exceeded.

Is shrimp glowing at night caused by Vibrio?

Yes. Luminous shrimp (luminous vibriosis) is caused by Vibrio harveyi. Disinfect water immediately with VIRO TRAP + feed CLEVER to suppress gut Vibrio. Check green Vibrio on TCBS agar.

How long after disinfection before applying probiotics?

Wait at least 24 hours after disinfecting with VIRO TRAP/POWER GLUTA before applying SOILMAX New. If applied too early, the disinfectant will kill the beneficial probiotics just added.

Is there a vaccine for EMS/AHPND prevention?

No commercial vaccine for EMS/AHPND exists yet. Best prevention: maintain beneficial microbes with regular SOILMAX New, boost immunity with AQUAMOS + BETAGLUCAN GRO, control Vibrio with CLEVER.

Does heavy rain increase Vibrio levels?

Yes. Heavy rain drops pH, reduces alkalinity, stresses shrimp → lower resistance → Vibrio surges. After rain: (1) raise alkalinity with GROWMIN, (2) boost resistance with AQUAMOS, (3) monitor Vibrio on TCBS agar.
