Over recent years much attention has been paid to the fishery use of geothermal sources. The prospects for this area are enormous, as it opens up possibilities for managing fish-breeding processes, regardless of climatic conditions. The main objective of the research was a comprehensive study of the technological processes of growing. One of the promising reserves for increasing fish production is the rational fishery use of waste warm water and geothermal sources. Research work was carried out in 2019 based on the farm of “Tengri Fish” LLP, which is located 270 kilometers from Almaty. The collection and processing of materials were carried out according to generally accepted methods in ichthyology and fish farming, followed by their analysis on a PC. Based on the results of the research, technological primaries of growing tilapia in a RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System) using geothermal waters were determined. During the research, work was carried out to optimize the hydrochemical regime. The main fish breeding and biological indicators for the growth and development of tilapia were established. The optimal stocking density of tilapias in recirculating aquaculture systems using geothermal waters and the temperature when tilapias have a higher average daily weight gain were found. The novelty of the research: a complex study of biology and adaptation of a new object of industrial fish farming of tilapia and clarium catfish has been carried out outside the range and determined the adaptation possibilities of tilapia and clarium catfish to extreme factors of the aquatic environment.
