A total of 1,500 larvae of Nile tilapia was distributed in 15 20-L aquaria (100 larvae in each one) to compare two methods of masculinization: via oral application, using a diet with hormone (60 mg 17α-methyltestosterone.kg-1); and through immersion bath (6 mg 17α-metyltestosterone.L-1), each one with five replicates. Larvae and juvenile were sampled on day 1 (beginning of the experiment) and on days 30 (end of hormone feeding period), 40, 45, 60 and 90. One sample with 0.5 g of […]
