abstract = {The objective of the study was to evaluate the growth of piau (Leporinus friderici) juveniles fed with diet supplemented with different levels of Schizochytrium sp. One hundred and forty juveniles of L. friderici were stocked in 20 aquariums (35 L) at the density of 0.2 fish L-1, weighing and measuring 11.80±1.08 g and 9.68±0.31 cm, respectively. The feeds were prepared and supplemented with 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 g of Schizochytrium sp. kg-1 of diet. On the 60th day, all juveniles were collected for measurement of the following parameters: Feed intake (g day-1), weight (g), weight gain (g), food conversion, total length (cm), Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and Fulton’s condition factor (K). Also, the whole-body composition was analyzed for dry matter, mineral matter, crude protein, lipids, calcium and phosphorus. A linear effect (p},
