Hi first time on this site, I have kept dwarf cichlids before never really took it that seriously, my question is:
Are there any Apistogramma or other dwarf found in the Rio Arapuins, I'm setting up a true biotope of this region and would love it if I could add a dwarf to the finished look.
The river is just west of Alenquer and Santarem if that helps to place it a bit more geographically.
Thanks people
Brian.

See my post under Apistogramma. The Rio Arapiuns has multiple biotopes with different water values. Most of the river system is clearwater, but the upper part of the Rio arua is a mix black/clearwater: pH 4.5-5.5; <1º dGH and dKH; 15µS/cm.

Youve been through Wales and seen the signs :)

Wow Tom....
I now want a full rendition of the song when we are trampling through that rough terrain in a couple of months.
I would definately be screaming "OH NO" if you did and i wouldnt be moaning about the hills :)
