G. de aEffects of stocking density on the performance of juvenile pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) in cages. c2012 aPirarucu, Arapaima gigas, is a carnivorous freshwater fish that exists along the Amazon Basin. This study investigated the effect of stocking density on growth performance and economic return of pirarucu in cages. Fish were stocked at densities of 10 or 12.5 fish/m3 in 4.0-m3cages installed in Sítios Novos Reservoir (Ceará State, Brazil), with three replicate cages for each density. Fish were fed a formulated diet containing 40% crude protein and 14.2 MJ/kg of feed and cultured for 140 days... aPirarucu aDensidade aViabilidade econômica1 aPINHEIRO, A. B.1 aOLIVEIRA, V.
