Very cool! Thanks for sharing. Please let me know when you plan another trip. After Gabon (next week!) I would like to go to South America.

Great write up! Enjoy the pics and words about the people just as much as the fish! Thank you very much for sharing it with us!

First:Thanks for the nice feedback, everyone! I'm glad you liked it.

.....are these two the same fish?
No, I don't think they are. The yellow chested ones show a yellow chest here too, and the overall bluish ones stay bluish:

.....How was that chicken soup?
The soup was nice. There was something in it, a part of a chicken.....or something else. We gave the meaty "thing" to the fisherman :biggrin:

If you new how many months i have been waiting. And its finally here.....
As alsways, my uber slow connection wont show the bottom half of the pics, will try to get firefox:eek:
You don't need to wait for my reports, Hudson, you lucky guy have these habitats and fish right in front of your doorstep!
I use Firefox, I would definitely try that, Hudson! Good luck!
