Effect of stocking density on economic performance for Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier, 1816), juvenile in earthen ponds

ABSTRACT. The seeding rate is a factor that affects water quality, biological, physiological parameters, incidence of parasites and economic indicators. 72,000 fish of ± 1.9 ± 0.1 cm and 0.4 ± 0.01 g were planted in 12 ponds of 600 m² in densities of 5, 10 and 15 fish m-2. The fish were fed twice a...
