Abstract

wo diets were evaluated, one control (T1), with the addition of 40 ml of hydroalcoholic solution to each kg of feed and other (T2) with 40 ml of the homeopathic product every kg of feed in Nile tilapia. 200 fish were distributed in 10 water tanks, totaling 20 animals in each of the boxes, where they remained for 63 days. During the experiment was carried out monitoring of the physical and chemical parameters of water, animal performance, determine the chemical composition and fatty acid composition in heads of Nile tilapia. there was no significant statistical difference between treatments in relation to physical and chemical water parameters, performance, moisture determination, ash, crude protein, total lipids. The Nile tilapia that received the homeopathic product incorporated in the feed showed the PUFA / SFA ratio higher than the control treatment presented significant difference. The heads of analyzed tilapia are an excellent source of total lipids.
