The bioenergetics of Ompok pabda varies significantly across seasons due to environmental factors such as temperature and humidity. This study examines seasonal variations in energy allocation among different life stages—fingerlings, pre-adults, adult males, and adult females—under controlled aquaculture conditions mimicking the natural climate of Tripura, India. The ingestion rate, assimilation efficiency, metabolic maintenance, growth rate, and energy used for reproduction were assessed during summer (28–32°C, 70–90% humidity) and winter (16–20°C, 50–60% humidity). Results indicated that metabolic rates and energy allocation for growth were higher in summer, while winter led to reduced ingestion, lower assimilation efficiency, and decreased growth. Graphical analysis of ingestion rate vs. assimilation efficiency and energy partitioning across seasons revealed significant seasonal influences on bioenergetics. These findings have implications for optimizing aquaculture strategies for Ompok pabda in fluctuating climatic conditions.
