  abstract = {{I}ndirect calorimetry method was used to measure postprandial utilization of energy substrates by atipa, #{H}oplosternum littorale$ (#{C}allichthyidae$, {S}iluriform). {A} model was adjusted to the data on respiratory exchanges and nitrogen excretion for this purpose. {A}s for other fish species, protein was actively catabolized after feeding during the 60 hr measurement time. {A}s long as carbohydrates were available, atipa was also able to use these substrates for its energy metabolism. {A} gradual increase of contribution of lipids was then noticed. {O}ver a 24 hr period following the food intake, a 30 g fish catabolized 90 mg of proteins and 43 mg of carbohydrates. {A}t the same time, the results led to a synthesis of 3.7 mg of fat. {A}n estimation of the increase of the global metabolism associated to food intake was obtained from integration of the exponential terms of the models.
