- Abstract
Growth of Oreochromis aureus juveniles testing different feeding rations (6, 8 and 10% of the total body weight) was studied culturing them in 113 L aquaria at a density of 25 fish per aquarium (3X). The initial mean fish body weight was 2.77 g. Food amount was weekly adjusted by determining the fish body weight. There were no significant differences (P > 0.05) in the specific growth rate after 35 experimental days. However, the feed conversion and food utilization ratios obtained for the 6% group, indicated a better growth efficiency.
