The research location was Rhee Royal Vannamei Sumbawa West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The research was carried out from September 2023 to February 2024. Vannamei shrimp were reared for 96 days in a pond area of 3,433±157 m2 at a stocking density of 133±5 shrimp/m2. Cultured probiotics were applied to the pond once every 3 days at a dose of 0.5 ppm in day of culture for 60 days and at a 1-1.5 ppm DOC from 60 to 96 days. The research method was randomized with two treatments and six replications. Carrying capacity was calculated using production carrying capacity. Data collection methods were observation, field, and laboratory measurements. The results showed that the T-test showed that applying probiotics and non-probiotics had no significant effect. Still, the productivity of probiotic plots was more stable and essential than non-probiotic plots. Probiotic plots produced 29.58% more than non-probiotic plots. Probiotics can improve water quality. The carrying capacity is 21,354 kg/ha. Environmental management is essential for the success of sustainable shrimp cultivation in ponds.
