ABSTRACT This study evaluated the potential for rearing matrinxã (Brycon amazonicus) with different crude protein (CP) levels and using production performance, water quality, and animal welfare as indicators. To achieve this, 720 juvenile fish (3.65±0.17 g) were distributed in 24 experimental units (200 L). The study, which lasted for 60 days, followed a factorial design (2 × 4) with two production systems: biofloc technology (BFT) and clear water (CW) and four CP levels (24, 30, 36, and 42%) in the […]

Two experiments were performed to study the effect of stocking rate and growing season on the performance of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus). In the first experiment, a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement was used to study the effect of two stoking rates (0.50 and 0.75 fishes/m2) and two subsequently growing seasons (with five and four month of duration time, respectively). In the second experiment, two stoking rates were compared (0.50 and 0.75 fishes/m2) in a growing season equivalent […]
