The aim of this study was to evaluate management, erythrocyte features and blood glucose level of pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus), stocked at different densities in cages. It was used 2,700 fish with initial average weight of142.11 ± 10.54 g distributed in nine cages of 5 m3 of useful volume during 240 days. A complete random design was used, with three densities (200, 300 and 400 fish per cage), each one with three replicates. Only final weight and weight gain decreased with […]
