    Endler's Livebearers as Dithers?

    When I tried Endlers as dithers, they did not tolerate the soft acid water well. Now I use neons or rasbora heteromorpha without problems.

    Eunotus from Pebas area

    I got mine at Stingray last time I was in Iquitos. They have faded out and don't have that blue color anymore. I was wondering how other people's fish had faired. Mike, I do have fry if you are interested when you get home.

    Eunotus from Pebas area

    A few years ago Mike and Tom C. collected some intensely blue eunotus types from around the Pebas area. Did those fish maintain that color in the aquarium and in subsequent generations?

    2 Apistos to ID

    That's odd. I must of clicked the wrong button. Meant to ask Mike if he knew where he would be collecting.

    Brian Perkins Needs ID on Apistos, Mike help please?

    The second picture looks like fish I got from Brian a year or so ago. They appeared to be as Mike said a colorful urteagai. They spawned for me once but then I moved and lost them.

    Hi from Bolivia

    Good to hear from someone in Bolivia. I collected apistos in Bolivia and really enjoyed the country. I am currently planning another trip to your country. The last trip we collected from Santa Cruz along highway 9 to Trinidad. From there we went up to Magdelena then west toward San Borga and...

    Gold form A. erythrura

    I am aware of A. erythrura with either red or blue caudals but not a gold form. Can someone give information on this fish? Is this a wild variant?

    Aquarium racks

    A good example of the rack system that I am talking about can be seen in the picture on pages 24 and 25 of the Jan/Feb issue of Amazonas magazine. The black connectors look like the nylon connectors I've seen available but I would like to know for sure.

    Aquarium racks

    I notice in pictures from European aquarists the aquarium racks are often made of what appears to be aluminum tubing and nylon (zytel) connectors. Does anyone have any information regarding these? What size of aquarium will they support?

    Fish you wish you had again

    Mike, I know where those Nannacara are and if Venezuela opens up again, those fish are on my list.

    Fish you wish you had again

    I wish I still had: Apisto guttata, beautiful fish that I collected in an idyllic location A. abacaxis, another great fish I produced in quantity until I got lazy and they died out. A. hoignei and A. inornata because I don't know when I will be able to collect again in Venezuela.

    Help ID

    These are wild caught we brought back from Peru. I don't have a reliable collection site. What are your thoughts? Hope these links work. http://www.flickr.com/photos/61627940@N03/6774413293/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/61627940@N03/6774411245/

    If you were going to collect in Colombia

    Brian Colombia is a place that I have been interested in collecting for a few years. However, it seems as though the areas that I want to go are still dangerous. Oliver Lucanus has been there as you know, but he has escorts. Which areas are you currently considering? Tom

    Palm fronds

    I have access to palm frond bases. Soaked in water, they turn the water brown. I thought of using them in my aquariums but we have a toxic algae here that kills fish. I'm wondering if I wet the palm fronds then microwave them if the fronds would then be safe to use. Thoughts?

    Old stainless framed tanks

    I'm amazed as I restore old stainless steel framed tanks that the "tar" used to seat the glass often is still very pliable and sticky. I wonder if our silicone sealed tanks will hold up as long.

    A couple of new acquisitions from the Amazon 2011

    Tom I also collected A. norberti in that same drainage. Soon after I got the fish home they gradually lost the red lips and none of the offspring ever developed the red lips. Also outside of Jenaro Herrera you may have passed an agricultural station. We collected in that station and found...
