  abstract = {{B}rooders of {S}urubi ({P}seudoplatystoma fasciatum) were caught in the {I}chillo {R}iver ({B}olivian {A}mazon) and adapted to captivity conditions for 1 year in the facilities of the experimental aquaculture station of '{E}l {P}rado' ({S}anta {C}ruz de la {S}ierra) under natural temperature and photoperiod conditions. {I}nduced reproduction was obtained by means of {O}vaprim ({R}) ({S}yndel, {C}anada) injections and artificial fertilization. {S}perm and ova were obtained by gentle stripping of male and female brooders. {F}ertilized eggs were incubated in 60 {L} {Z}ug jars. {A} mean hatching rate of 73.7 +/- 19.0% was obtained after 24 h at 26.5 degrees {C}. {F}or larval rearing, several protocols were tested with different settings of photoperiod, light intensity, food type and period of distribution, and stocking density. {T}he best survival rates were obtained with {A}rtemia nauplii feeding in total darkness. {A} high level of aggressiveness between larvae and precocious appearance of jumpers was observed, but these can be controlled with appropriate rearing conditions.},
