This looks a fantastic book and is definitely needed.. I will definitely be buying this book as it contains some great reference material.. great work and I hope it is worth the research effort and time you and your team have dedicated to making this book..
Amazing. This would be a dream career to dedicate so much timd knto exploring snd studying these environments. Convergent evolution is crazy. The pike cichlids at 4:20 appear so similar Teleogramma brichardi in Africa. Great stuff, i need to get this book
Do the black Pike that hunt plecostomus and crab have a dental structure similar to a pacu in that they can crunch crunchy things? Do any of the freshwater crabs make it to the aquarium trade?
yes, there are. The discus are not in lakes at all, they are in the main river. The scene at 11:13 is 10 min from where discus occur, in deep water, in the main river. Almost no light - there are Xingu discus photos in the book! The same area we saw Cre.macrophthalma, Caq.spectabile, Acanthicus etc
Why do researchers rarely or never visit Surinam for discoveries? If you ask anyone they won't be able to tell you where it's located on the world map 😂
