  abstract = {#{H}oplosternum littorale$ is a siluriform fish of very high commercial value in some country of {S}outh {A}merica. {S}ome biological characteristics as easy spawning in confinement and good tolerance of low oxygen level make it easy to cultivate. {A}quatic oxygen uptake does not allow to sustain standard metabolism, so it is considered as an obligated air breather. {R}outine metabolism and growth cannot be completed without air access. {A} circadian rythm for feeding behaviour is observed. {M}ost voluntary food intake occur during the night. {T}he sunset is a directive factor even in case of time lag. {S}o, a night feeding schedule should bbe used in practise.
