Abstract
A total 96 common carp Cyprinus carpio L. with an average weight of 14.03 gm/fish were assigned randomly into four groups of three replicates for each group , each replicate included 8 fishes . The fish were fed on four diets that were equal in isonitroenons (24.16%) and isocaloric (1408.88 MJ/kg). Both vitamin E and Se were added at levels of 0, 150+0.2 , 300+0.2 and 450+0.2 ml/kg diet for the treatments group T1 , T2 , T3 and T4 respectively . The results showed that supplementation of both vitamin E + Se into the diets increased insignificantly (p>0.05) the T2 and increased significantly (p<0.05) T3 and T4 for weight gain (WG), relative growth ratio (RGR), specific growth ratio (SGR), and protoin intake (PI) and for T4 for food conversion ratio (FCR) as compared T1. There were no significant differences for all treatment in protein efficiency ratio (PER). The results of the blood traits showed significant increases (p<0.05) for T4 for red blood cell count (RBC) , and there were no significant differences (p>0.05) for packed cell volume PCV% and hemoglobin concentration (Hb
