Bacteriophages are currently considered one of the most promising alternatives to antibiotics under the 'One Health' approach due to their ability to effectively combat bacterial infections. This study aimed to characterize Vibrio species in hatchery water samples collected from an aquaculture farm and investigate the biocontrol potential of their bacteriophages. Vibrio spp. (n = 32) isolates confirmed by LNA probe-based qPCR were used as hosts. Three Vibrio phages were isolated. IKEM_vK exhibited a broad host range, infecting V. harveyi (n = 8), V. alginolyticus (n = 2), V. azureus (n = 1), and V. ordalii (n = 1). IKEM_v5 showed lytic activity against V. anguillarum (n = 4) and V. ordalii (n = 1), while IKEM_v14 was specific to V. scophtalmi (n = 4). The morphological appearance of phages and their lytic effects on the host were visualized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). All three phages remained relatively stable within the pH range of 6–11 and up to 60 °C. The lytic activities and biofilm inhibition capabilities of these phages against planktonic Vibrio cells support their potential applications in controlling vibriosis in aquaculture systems.
