Hi everybody, my name is Heriberto and i´m biology student, first at all my english is terrible , so its hard for me explain how amazing is my work, but i just want to show you some pics of loricariidae. I work with fishes stream in Jardim, Mato Grosso do Sul in Brazil, and i collecting some Ancistrus, Hypostomus and Rineloricarias. Well, that´s it!
(Ancistrus, some Characins like Brycon hilarii, Piaractus mesopotamicus, Serrasalmus brasiliensis, Astyanax...)










Others (Tapir and Anteater)

incredible, wow.. thanks for sharing!! more please!

(clapping)

Amazing! We definitely need more pictures!!

Definitely more pictures. And I don't think you have to worry about your English for two reasons:
1. It's 100 times better than my Portuguese/Brazilian (I couldn't even say "Hello!", never mind discuss fish I'd caught in a river).
2. Your pictures speak more than your words!

Yes, I'd like to know what that is too [I think that is what Matt is asking!] - Hoplosternum littorale?

Hi Kim, i don´t know which cory is that, but i have these 4 pictures. Can you help me to identified this fish?

Wonderful, wonderful photos. I have never come across water that clear in either the Orinoco or Amazon basins. Just amazing.

Is that eroded limestone?

EDIT: You wouldn't happen to know the pH of the water?

Hmm...difficult to tell I. I have seen a very similar picture to the one in the right bottom corner somewhere but can't remember where. Corydora snegro comes to mind, but I am not shure they are together with pantanalensis in the wild.

We love to hear the additional information about the collection sites, also, but it's hard to beat shiny pictures !
