The objective of this study was to determine antimicrobial activity, antibioflm potential and synergism of fve essential oils (EOs) with forfenicol against motile Aeromonas isolated from Amazonian Colossoma macropomum. As their major constituent, the EOs of the species of Aloysia triphylla, Croton cajucara (red and white morphotype), Cymbopongo citratus and Lippia gracilis present beta-pinene (22.1%), germacrene D (11.5%), linalool (23%), geranial (45.7%) and carvacrol (42.2%), respectively. The EOs of L. gracilis and C. citratus showed the best antimicrobial activities against the Aeromonas strains (5 mg mL-1). All EOs interfered with bioflm formation and consolidated bioflm. The EOs of A. triphylla, C. citra- tus and L. gracilis showed a synergistic efect with forfenicol, reducing the amount of the chemical into the water systems while treatment. aAeromonas aColossoma Macropomum aÓleo Essencial aTambaqui aAntimicrobial activity aNatural products1 aCHAGAS, E.
