A discus. Also under the pier!
I think. Not sure where it came from. It was a gift from the fishermen, and I forgot to ask.

Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos, not only of the fish but of their natural surroundings as well! Great timing on your part as this is exactly what I've been looking for recently - very useful for my upcoming aquarium project, and I'm sure many others' too. Do feel free to post up any more you have, I'm sure we're all enjoying them

Great great stuff! Thanks for the temperature readings, really appreciate it. Was surprisingly high to me but I guess it's in the height of the dry season now.

Thanks again some great pictures and lots of information.
Sad question but any idea if that mud like rock can be bought? Sorry just thinking allot of cat fish if they cant find a suitable spot make one perhaps others would dig holes in it and make suitable breeding spots.

The Centromochlus sure looks a lot like C. concolor.
As far as I know, this species has not been found yet in the Rio Tapajos, though.

Nice idea, but don't think it would work. It would make a horrible mess of the tank, as the water would go very cloudy for sure.JamesFish wrote: Sad question but any idea if that mud like rock can be bought?
Yes, they are similar indeed. Will have to check in more detail.kruseman wrote:The Centromochlus sure looks a lot like C. concolor.
It was pale because it was very dead and starting to go bad. I don't think it looked like that in life.Marc van Arc wrote:Ageneiosus Looks a lot like A. marmoratus, but the paleness of this fish.....
Nice one. Thanks. I was struggling to work out what that one was.Marc van Arc wrote:Given the fact that it lacks an adipose, this should be Trachelyopterus coriaceus
