A feeding trial spanning two months was conducted to evaluate the effects of sp on growth performance, water quality, survival, proximate composition and biochemical profile of common carp () where fishmeal was partially replaced using sp in the diet. Twenty uniform-sized common carp fries were distributed into triplicate groups and placed in 40-liter rectangular glass tanks. sp. was added at different levels in the diet: 0 % (control), 5 % (C5), 10 % (C10), 15 % (C15) along with the commercial feed (CMF). After the experiment, random sampling of fish was performed to conduct all the analyses. Significant variations ( < 0.05) were found in the chemical water quality parameters. The highest survival rate was recorded from C15 (81.67 %) followed by C10 (71.67 %), CMF (63.33 %) and C5 (58.33 %) respectively compared with the control (43.2 %). There were significant differences ( < 0.05) observed among all the treatments in terms of Average Daily Gains (ADG), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and length increments. Protein content ranged the highest and the lowest in C15 (35.6 %) and control (24.8 %) respectively. The C15 group showed the highest lipid content (15.7 %) and the control group showed the lowest lipid (8.4 %). The inclusion of sp in the diet had a significant positive impact on the fatty acid and amino acid profile of whole common carp. Present data revealed that substituting a portion of fishmeal with sp. powder could provide higher growth performance, offering both nutritional benefits and higher survival rate in common carp ().

Background: Pomegranate () fruit rich in bioactive constituents, is used as a feed supplement against bacterial pathogens in aquaculture.
Aim: This study examined the effects of supplementing the diet of the common carp () infected with on growth and some hematological, biochemical, and immunological health indicators.
Methods: Carp was fed for 7 weeks a diet of 30% crude protein and 7% crude fat, supplemented with 0, 0.
