Abstract
'Stress care', a product from Indian Herbs Ltd., was evaluated for its effect on growth
of common carp through dietary incorporation. The indoor culture system with aeration
and water circulation and without aeration and water circulation were used for the growth
study for 60 days. Three levels of stress care at 0.15, 0.50 and 0.75% of the diets were fed
to common carp fry. Incorporation of stress care did not produce any beneficial changes
in the growth and survival of common carp. However, its effect on common carp under
stressful culture conditions needs to be investigated further
