[Objective] This study was conducted to develop compound probiotics that can be used as the alternatives of chemical drugs and antibiotics in aquaculture. [Method] Different concentrations of EM （effective microorganisms） and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens were mixed at a ratio of 1：1, and sprayed on fish feed. The growth of intestinal villi of the fishes that had been fed with the feed mixed with compound probiotics for three months was observed; meanwhile, the content of in- testinal Aeromonas hydrophila was detected by real-time quantitative PCR. ｜Result] The compound probiotics promoted the development of intestinal villi, and inhibited the growth of A. hydrophila, and the effects were also concentration dependent. However, the compound probiotics did not increase the thickness of the intestinal serous layer, muscular layer and submucosal layer. [Conclusion] The compound probiotics we prepared can be used and popularized in aquiculture as it can inhibit the growth of A. hydrophila.
