	FBW (g)	WG (%)1)	SGR (%)2)	FI (g/fish)	FCR3)	PER4)	Survival (%)
AP0	319 ± 19	110 ± 11	0.68 ± 0.05	183 ± 20	1.10 ± 0.15	1.78 ± 0.22	73.3 ± 19.6
AP25	328 ± 11	114 ± 9	0.70 ± 0.04	178 ± 32	1.02 ± 0.19	1.92 ± 0.34	85.0 ± 21.3

Values are mean of quadruplicate groups and presented as mean ± SD.
Values in the same column having different superscript letters are significantly different (p ≤ 0.05). The diets were prepared by coating 0%, 0.25%, or 0.50% of Bacillus sp. SW1-1 mixture solution (designated as AP0, AP25, or AP50, respectively).
[(FBW − initial BW)/ initial BW] × 100.
(log_e final weight – log_e initial weight) × 100/days.
Dry feed fed/wet weight gain.
Fish weight gain/protein.
FBW, final body weight; WG, weight gain; SGR, specific growth rate; FI, feed intake; FCR, feed conversion ratio; PER, protein efficiency ratio.
