In this regard, the biofloc water reuse to Daphnia production becomes an option to environmentally friendly aquaculture system. This research aimed assesses the Daphnia similis culture using wastewater from tilapia farming in biofloc system. The experiment was carried out at Laboratório de Produção de Alimento Vivo – LAPAVI –UFRPE, during 30 days, with three treatments DCCW – D. similis culture in clear water with the addition of C. vulgaris; DCBW –D. similis culture in biofloc water from Nile tilapia farming without C. vulgaris adding; and DCBWC - D. similis culture in biofloc water from Nile tilapia farming with C. vulgaris adding were conducted entirely at random with five replicates each using 20L tanks (42 x 17 x 29 cm), with 12 L of useful volume and stocking density of 9 org.L-1. The culture water from Nile tilapia farming in biofloc system had a carbohydrate:nitrogen ratio of 12:1, 45 day of culture, stoking density of 40 fish.m-3 and mean weight of 30.57 ± 10.04 g, was collected and shared on the experimental units. It were evaluated both water quality and growth variables from the microcrustacean. The water quality variables pH, temperature and total dissolved solids (TDS) showed significant positive correlation (P
