Growth performance of bullfrog’s cultured in continuous water flow tank was studied and discussed. 1500 bullfrogs juveniles were stocked in three tanks (500 frogs/tank). Frogs were fed twice daily with a trout diet. The survival rate was 80%. After 60 days, the frogs presented growth values to be considered as an alternative in aquaculture, showing a TCA greater than 1.5 in larger organisms. The model fit analysis suggested that Ruíz model presented 100% data support. These data strengthen the productive potential of bullfrog’s aquaculture in continuous water flow tank.
