Effect of stocking density of juvenile Arapaima gigas on rearing water quality hematological and biochemical profile, and productive performance

ABSTRACT At inadequate stocking density, fish generally show different physiological responses. The effects of stocking density on Arapaima gigas larvae productive parameters have been determined in a previous study. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the stocking density on the water qualit...

Effect of stocking density of juvenile Arapaima gigas on rearing water quality hematological and biochemical profile, and productive performance
description ABSTRACT At inadequate stocking density, fish generally show different physiological responses. The effects of stocking density on Arapaima gigas larvae productive parameters have been determined in a previous study. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the stocking density on the water quality, hematological and biochemical profile, and productive performance of juvenile A. gigas. One hundred and eighty twelve months old, A. gigas were distributed into tanks using initial densities of 103.90, 157.95 and 220.11 kg m-3 with three replicates.
