Abstract

Bacterial disease caused by Aeromonas are among the most common and troublesome diseases of fish raised in aquaculture systems. In this study, some strains identified as belonging to the Aeromonas were isolated from neon tetra (Hyphessobrycon herbertaxelrodi) skin and fin, as well as from water samples. VITEK system and API ZYM examination of the isolated strains were undertaken, and it seemed to correlate with the Aeromonas, proved to be Aeromonas veronii. The antibiotic susceptibility test of isolated strains to different groups of antibiotics was evaluated using the disc diffusion method. Cefixime was the most sensitive antibiotic.
