The present study was conducted to assess the effects of combined and singular dietary administration of PrimaLac® and potassium diformate (KDF) on growth performance, feed utilization, digestive enzymes activity, and some physiological parameters of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) juvenile. Three hundred sixty rainbow trout juveniles (25 ± 1.8 g) were randomly stocked in 300-L tanks (30 fish/tank), and fed three times daily on a basal diet (control), diets incorporated with 12 g kg⁻¹ KDF (FT₁), 1.5 g kg⁻¹ PrimaLac® (FT₂), and combination of 1.5 g kg⁻¹ probiotic and 12 g kg⁻¹ KDF (FT₃) in triplicates, for 8 weeks. At the end of feeding trial, growth performance, body composition, digestive enzymes, liver enzymes, and biochemical parameters were measured. Our results revealed that combined administration of PrimaLac® and KDF (FT₃) exhibited significantly higher weight gain and specific growth rate (SGR) compared to other groups (P < 0.05). Glucose and cortisol levels showed no significant differences between fish fed different test diets (P > 0.05). The highest lipase, protease and amylase activity were observed in group of fish fed FT₃ followed by FT₂ and FT₁. Besides, the diets FT₂ and FT₃ led to significantly lower of ALP, ALT, and AST compared to control group. The present results indicated that combined administration of PrimaLac® and KDF can be considered as a beneficial feed additive and growth promotor for O. mykiss juvenile.
