First catches in the Amazon Oct. 2010
by Tom Christoffersen
Yesterday, ......sort of warming up:-)
Around 60-70km from Iquitos:



to this nice little stream:

On this very hot day, the water was very shallow and very warm:

 pH: 4,87 Conductivity: 14 microSiemens/cm Temperature: 35,3 °C !!
Amazingly, there were several Apistogramma species in the water:

Apistogramma cf. eunotus:

This strange looking fish is probably Apistogramma sp. "Zchwarzbrust/Black-breast":


and to our (and the fisherman's) big surprise:

Wonderful Apistogramma eremnopyge:

Today we are preparing for the next expedition; tomorrow we will take a flight to more distant areas.
Maybe more to come......
