Resumen:
This report had as purpose evaluate the development of cultivation of tilapia Oreochromis niloticus lineage
Chitralada in tanks-net, observing patterns of growth rate, surviving rate, weight and mass of tilapias, and
related to the commercial utilization. For the study were used ten tanks-net a public dam Boqueirão do Cais,
in Cuité, state of Paraíba (PB). The process of cultivation lasted 304 days, receiving specialized technical
surveillance, monitoring the physical and chemical patterns of water, also observing stages of feeding, of
growth rate, weight and mass of tilapias. The temperature of the water, pH, transparency and dispersed
oxygen were measured once every two weeks, following the traditional methods, at 8:00 and at 16:00, but
the nitrogen ammoniac, nitrite, phosphates, traces of alkaline, overall inflexibility every four weeks in order to
follow the quality of water according to the development of cultivation. The conclusion is the technical and
economical viability of cultivation of tilapia nilotica (linege Chitralada) in tanks-net in dams.
