Abstract:The objective was to identify the best stocking density in the initial fattening phase of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) using biofloc technology (BFT) and evaluate the effects of the densities on water quality, zootechnical performance and the metabolic profile of fish and production costs. Juveniles (56.5 ± 1.69 g) were reared in the densities: 15 (BFT15), 30 (BFT30) and 45 (BFT45) fish.m− 3, in triplicate, for 80 days. The use of BFT inoculum at the beginning contributed the maintenance of adequate ammonia… Show more
