Damming of the Rio Xingu in Brazil seems to be an unavoidable happening in the not too distant future. We've been discussing the issue for some time in detail over at Planetcatfish.com, dreading the demise of many of our beloved Catfish species. Many of them depend on their habitat's fast flowing, oxygen rich water to live, and the proposed dams will certainly be the end of most such habitats in the area. But what about the Cichlids (and other species as well, but since this forum is for Dwarf Cichlids...), does anyone have any views on how they will be affected by the dams? Several species of Apistogramma are found in the area, but do they stand a better chance of surviving the looming catastrophy?
