Awesome thread! I'm quite jealous of the OP. Swimming with the arowanas in SA is on my bucket list. I know arowanas aren't found in the Rio Xingu (or, not that I'm aware of), however, diving with all those cool L-numbers looks pretty great! Thanks for sharing.

Hey Ben, how are you? i send a email!!

Hi there,
when you have the oportunity to make pictures of these bueautifil Auchenipterid species, it would be very nice to place some pics of them in this thread.
It would give a more complete image of the under water fauna in that area.

Thanks in advance .

Thank you for this wonderful post Heriberto. I have sent you a message with some questions. I look forward to your reply and more posts.

I am curious regarding the zebras. Did you actually collect them your self? If so can you indicate at what depths and what sort of numbers you spotted while collecting them. Thanks.

In the 5th picture on page 1 there is a faint horizontal stripe pattern in the shadows. Now I initially thought this was a small H Zebra, but it could also be the nose of the A Rununculus.

i want to visit brazil for the gorgeous women, jiu jitsu and fish.. id probly never leave thou

my instructor goes home to fortaleza when he visits and has asked me if i wanted to go with.. how far is that from the rio xingu?

i think the OP stated that the book doesnt come out till march, probly why you cant find it yet.. also the cover looks like its in portuguese and english.. is the whole book bilingual as well?

Awesome pictures. I would love to go diving in the Xingu and be able to see or even collect an adult L014 Goldie.

L174??

thats right this are l174 i see 3 pieces
i would love to own this

Brilliant photos

Beautiful L174!!

Extremely nice and greed inducing pictures aside... what would also be interesting is pictures and descriptions of the habitat itself. Give us more tank setup ideas.

Heriberto was kind enough to send me a copy of the book, I'm going through it at this very moment

Very nice! It may have been discussed earlier, but where is this book available? I need a copy for certain...

Beautifull pics. Thanks for sharing!!

Great looking book! I'll buy several copies when it's out (I just checked the brazilian amazon.com, and it is not there yet)

Has anyone been able to locate this book for sale? I tried by searching on the ISBN and tried a few variations where I wasn't sure from the image. Thank you.

Hi Amiidae! How are you? I send you a message!!

Hi,
I just registered on this Board, just to read and maybe discuss some Questions and Answers about L-46 and than I saw this thread.
I lost my heart5 to the Hypancistrus Zebra l46 and I have several Fishtanks where I breed them.
All I can say to this Fotos and Informations is:
WOW, WOW, WOW
what wonderful Pictures and what a feeling that must be, holding a selfcatched, wild l46 in the hand.
