Antibiotic use in livestock feed additives has resulted in harmful residue accumulation and spread of drug-resistance. We examined the use of antimicrobial peptides as a safer alternative to antibiotics in feeding the common carp. AMPs were added to common carp basal diets (Control) as additives
at four concentrations: 100 mg kg1 (B1), 200 mg kg1 (B2), 400 mg kg1 (B3), 600 mg kg1 (B4) by dry
weight of basal diet. After a 60-day feeding experiment, the final weight, DG and SGR of carps on B1, B2
and B3 diet were significantly higher than the control (p < 0.05). The FCR of carps on B1, B2 and B3 diet
were significantly lower than the control (p < 0.05). Carps on B2, B3, and B4 diets showed significantly
lower (p < 0.05) levels of triglyceride than the control.
