The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the feeding period and the number of meals on performance of tilapia raised in cages fed with feed rates adjusted daily based on expected feed conversion. Two experiments were conducted simultaneously: Experiment 1 was to evaluate two feeding frequencies (0:48 meals / day) with an initial feed rate of 0.5% of PV and three repetitions. Experiment 2 consisted of evaluating two food frequency (24:48 meals / day) with an initial rate of 1.5% of body weight with 3 repetitions. Fish were housed in 24 cages of 1m3 distributed linearly in a nursery of 2000 m2 with 5% water renewal. In each cages were distributed 28 tilapia with initial weight of 305 ± 15,7g. The experiment lasted 60 days, during the summer with an average temperature of 25.2-± 1.02 ° C water. The installed automatic feeders controlled by PLC cages (programmable logic controller) provided a commercial extruded feed containing 32% crude protein. The frequency of 12 meals/day during daytime and initial rate of 1.5% of body weight, Experiment 2 showed better performance results with an average weight of 513.85 g
