Bee propolis (Apis mellifera) as a Growth Promoter in Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
A study was conducted to determine the effect of ethanolic extracts of propolis collected by bees from Tapachula, Chiapas on the development of 225 juvenile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), fed in commercial starter feed in one of five daily rations with different concentrations: T0 (0 g Kg-1), T1 (10 g Kg-1), T2 (15 g Kg-1), distributed for 4 weeks in 9 containers of 60 l each. Tilapia growth was evaluated through morphometric data such as weight (g), total length (cm), and standard length (cm)
