Probiotics are widely used for the improvement of animals' growth and health. However, few marine aquatic probiotics are applied and licensed in China. In this study, aBacillusspp. strain was isolated from the Hulong grouper gastrointestinal tract, which was identified as a new strain of Bacillus subtilis and was named as 7k. B. subtilis7k showed desirable capability of sporulation and resistance to heat, simulated gastric juice and simulated duodenum juice, indicating its potential as probiotics. Seven antimicrobial chemicals were found in the secretion of theB. subtilis7k.B. subtilis7k addition in diet promoted the growth rate of Hulong groupers. Moreover,B. subtilis7k can inhibit infection by iridovirus, makingB. subtilis7k a suitable kind of probiotic for maintaining fishes’ health. Our results also revealed thatB. subtilis7k induced non-specific immune response in Hulong grouper under virus infection. Hulong grouper fed by diets containingB. subtilis7k at 108and 1010cfu g−1for 4–8 weeks were significantly strengthened in serum lysozyme activity, serum alternative complement activity (ACH50), serum bactericidal activity, respiratory burst, superoxide dismutase activity (SOD), and phagocytic activity of head kidney leucocytes when compared with those fed by control diets. In conclusion,B. subtilis7k was isolated and characterized to be a kind of process enduring, growth stimulating, immunity enhancing and health promoting probiotic using in grouper culture.
