Integrating curimba culture during the grow‐out phase of tambaqui affects overall productivity, water quality, and fish health

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The efficiency of feed use in aquaculture may be improved by integrating the culture of extractive species into fed‐species systems. This study assessed the impact of including curimba (Prochilodus lineatus) in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) production during the grow‐out phase in earthen ponds.
