This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with citral on growth performance and intestinal parameters, and specific activity of the digestive enzymes of Sardinella brasiliensis. 240 juvenile S. brasiliensis were randomly distributed in a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) composed of 12 circular tanks of 150 L (n = 20 per tank). A diet without citral addition (control) and three diets containing different levels of citral inclusion (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mL kg*feed–1) were used in the fish feeding management during 20 days. The indexes of zootechnical performance, survival, weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion and condition factor of the fish were verified, as well as digestive enzymes and histological analysis. A significant positive relationship was found between citral supplementation and fish survival. In the specific activity of digestive enzymes, dietary citral supplementation at 2.0 mL* kg feed–1 increased lipase and amylase activity. Citral supplementation positively influenced the number of villi and intestinal crypt depth. Furthermore, the inclusion of citral at 0.5 mL kg*feed–1 increased the intestine diameter of the fish. The results of the experiment suggest that the addition of citral as an additive in the diet of S. brasiliensis improved the survival of fish.
