Fish with an initial body weight of 3.62±1.33 g were fed on diet supplemented with either 0%, 10%, 15%, 20% of probiotic. Results showed that fish fed on the diet supplemented with 15% of probiotic had the highest protein retention and specific growth rate, which were16.48±0.49% and 17.65±0.9%/day respectively.</p><p class="NoParagraphStyle"> </p><p class="NoParagraphStyle">Keywords: probiotic, <em>Azola</em> meal, protein retention, specific growth rate</p><p class="NoParagraphStyle"> </p><p class="NoParagraphStyle"> </p><p class="NoParagraphStyle" align="center"><strong>ABSTRAK</strong></p><p class="NoParagraphStyle" align="center"> </p><p class="NoParagraphStyle">Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efek pemberian pakan mengandung probiotik pada ikan nila, <em>Oreochromis niloticus</em>.
