%X 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) for each week in order to identify changes. Physicochemical parameters were measured in the water, such as temperature (°C), salinity (ppm), electrical conductivity (uS/m), total dissolved solids (ppm), pH, and total ammonium (mg/L). Significant differences (p
