“The duality of the emersed and submersed worlds, existing in parallel and supporting each other.” Eloquently stated and beautifully shot. A very meditative and enjoyable video!
Thank you. Very beautiful. Hard to believe something like this hasn't been destroyed. South America has the most interesting and beautiful fishes IMHO.
Absolutely beautiful. The invasive species are worrying though and so is the pollution. But your videos are inspirational, for the aquarists and from a nature conservation perspective. Thank you!
Just found your channel and subscribed, absolutely love it , been keeping fish for over 20 years but love seeing them like this in there own habitat, you have a great life witnessing this nature
I stopped reading the captions because each sentence was broken up into small bits like this. The video is beautiful but I have no idea what you said after the first couple of sentences. Keep this in mind when making caption-only videos in the future. Thank you for sharing this beautiful habitat with the rest of us. Have a nice day!
awesome video, very peaceful and calming, I also enjoy just observing the aquatic environments and apreciating them, I live on the west coast of Florida so I get to snorkel often
Thank you so much :) I've not had time until recently to go through the footage from last years expeditions really, and time and money are always an issue, but I'm pleased you enjoyed this material, now that I finally got it posted!
@@biotopia5319 hope to see more like this footage in the next time. longer videos that take the viewer on a little journey mixed with nice ambient sounds. good luck and all the best to you. kind regards from germany
I often go to visit nearby streams to understand how i need to do a biotope ❤ And majority of the time i ended up spending so much time to see this submersible world❤
I am sorry. I can only like the video once. What a great video and exactly what I find interesting in the hobby. Rheophilic environments and fish. Thanks so much for sharing.
This is wonderful! As a naturalist that used to live in Natal, it is very pleasant to watch this video. Now I live in Rio de Janeiro, and we have a lot of interesting stream habitats around here. I always focus on birds when I'm in the bush, but my brother demonstrates a very high interest on fish. By the way, is there any database that can help on the ID of the species? We've just identified one, Mimagoniates microlepis, however, there's a Characidium species that we don't know exactly the species. Thanks in advance, amazing video! :)
Hi! Thanks for your message! Regarding Characidium, you should reach out to Dr. Paulo Buckups at PUC, based in the Museo Nacional RJ, he should be able to help! With database it's hard...maybe Inaturalist, or the Checklist of the Freshwater Fishes of South and Central America. If you need a PDF let me know :)
Lagao Azul? great video, pristine water in an urban environment. I would hardly say the people were "that" poor. I live in one of the richest countries in the world and the government can't even find the money to clean our main waterway.Before white trash arrived (me) here, the Indigenous Yarra Yarra tribe said the yarra river water was clean and clear, now it's just a muddy brown due to carp and suburban run off and development. Further up stream as suburbia falls back from the river side the water becomes clear and clean AND drinkable (though you should always boil it) and you can see fish and platypus in the river. Some of our creeks due to rock and massive reed beds have created clear water channels and again you can see fish and platypus if you are lucky. Also are there no crocodiles in the water?
@@biotopia5319 You may have to experiment with different compression settings on the camera. All of the different GoPro models support different formats and they may even be configured differently. Generally you want to use the highest-quality, least-compressed format that you can get out of the camera (which means really big files, unfortunately). And then after editing, when you upload to RU-vid, you'll want to match the highest quality setting so that RU-vid servers don't need to re-compress the video. This will probably take a lot of experimentation since there are so many variables. A home aquarium set up with a fast-moving river biotope would be a good way to test. You definitely don't want to worry about camera settings when you're on a trip!
Thank you for that detailed info! I thought I had put the video on 4K at 60fps and that I rendered it in the same compression format, and when I upload them RU-vid seems to recognise that...but perhaps I need to review it to double check. I'm not very tech-minded unfortunately but I will try to improve it! I really want to get a housing and dome for my DSLR but they are crazy expensive...the GoPro was a compromise. I also have a little Olympus TG5 which I used, but it refuses to shoot in 4K for some reason and the moment there's a tiny bit of shadow, the video quality plummets. I really appreciate you taking the time to advise me, thank you!
Si existe el cielo yo quiero que sea como este lugar... increíble...mi enhorabuena por el vídeo tienes un canal fantástico!!!...un abrazo enorme amigo 😊
Make a video in Espírito Santo state, in our state have good destines for this finality, some places is Paulo César Vinha State Park, Caparaó National Park, the Muncipality of Linhares and Colatina, Itaúnas State Park and Jucu and Itapemirim rivers
