description In recent years, probiotics have received considerable attention for improving the health of aquaculture organisms, such as fish and shrimp, by stimulating immune activity and increasing growth rates. <i>Oplegnathus fasciatus</i> is a common and economically important cultured fish species in Asia. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential of lactic acid bacteria (LAB; <i>Limosilactobacillus reuteri</i>)-fermented feed to promote growth and enhance immune function in <i>O. fasciatus</i>. The feed contained the highest proportion of LAB after <i>L. reuteri</i> fermentation for 3 days in anaerobic conditions. <i>Oplegnathus fasciatus</i> was fed LAB-fermented feed for 30 days. The administration of LAB-fermented feed (live bacteria > 10<sup>9</sup> CFU/g) significantly increased the growth rate (weight gain = 174.8%; FCR = 4.23) and intestinal probiotic levels of <i>O. fasciatus</i>. After LAB-fermented feeding, the immunity index was evaluated by superoxide anion production, the phagocytic activity of leukocytes, and bactericidal and lysozyme activities in the serum of <i>O. fasciatus.</i> We found that LAB-fermented feed treatment potentially elevated the proportions of intestinal <i>Bifidobacterium</i>, <i>Blautia</i>, and <i>Dorea</i> species and reduced pathogenic bacterial growth (<i>Acinetobacter</i>, <i>Escherichia_Shigella,</i> and <i>Megasphaera</i>) in <i>O. fasciatus</i>. This study demonstrated that LAB-fermented feed containing extracellular vesicles improves growth performance and the inhibition of pathogenic <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>.
