Abstract
As a new technology solution, probiotic fish feed supplementation was the initial approach for this
experiment to assess the influence of probiotic-supplemented food on the growth rate of common carp (Cyprinus carpio
L.). The experimental design was set in a registered cage farm in a reservoir. For the trial, three cages were dimensioned.
Two experimental groups were observed (A – with lower probiotic concentration, and B – with higher probiotic
concentration) and a control group C, without probiotic feed addition. An equal number of 323 carp individuals were
stocked in each group. The experiment was conducted over 180 days. The growth rate was evaluated during the
experimental trial. The carp fed with probiotic-supplemented feed with lower concentration had a positive impact on
growth rate (GR) (total, specific, and individual GR), i.e. carp individuals in group A during the first and the second
phase, compared with control group C.
