- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- Footage shows the habitat of the clear water karst stream of the Rio Sucuri, in the Bodoquena highlands of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The first few km of the river are clear, having emerged from its source spring nearby and has not yet had time to become turbid from detritus and sediment. The clear waters permit plenty of sunlight penetration which in turn leads to dense aquatic vegetation.
Plant species found here include:
Acrosticum danaeifolium
Bacopa australis
Chara rusbyana
Echinodorus cordifolius
Echinodorus grandiflorus
Echinodorus macrophyllus
Gomphrena elegans
Helanthium bolivianum (used to be known as Echinodorus bolivianus)
Hydrocotyle verticillata (described in literature concerning this river as H. leucocephala but I'm sure that it's H. verticillata)
Ludwigia peruviana
Myriophyllum aquaticum
Nymphaea jamesoniana
Nymphaea gardneriana Planch
Potamogeton illinoensis
Polygonum acuminatum
Polygonum hydropiperoides
Pontederia parviflora

Thank you Tai. This is my favorite habitat in all the world. What a beautiful aquascape. The plants and fish and water and environs are tremendous. And thank you for your classical English which is very admirable.
Does it have crocs or gators
@@SummerSun-sg3wf They are really abundant. But they are not as big as the ones in US or Africa for example. They are the main prey of Jaguar.
Serpae tetras always look so pretty and vibrant in their natural habitat ❤
Got home after a long day at work. Kids asleep, wife watching her show. I got my dinner, turned this on, and surprisingly relaxed into the rest of my night.
Thanks for sharing, Tai.
Hey, thank you and I'm really pleased this video helped you relax, makes me happy!
This is so relaxing. I could go on vacation and do a couple of snorkeling sites to experience a rare site.
Thanks Jose! Well, it's certainly possible in this river :)
Thanks for upholding the beauty of natural aquatic systems
This is a wonderful video and I really enjoy it, However, I don’t know why so many RUclipsrs have to play background music so loud that it makes it difficult to understand the narration. You’re not the only one, so please do not take offense. Thanks for sharing this beautiful location.
Thank you for your feedback! I am trying to get to grips with the audio and am learning as I go...sometimes it seems the volume is low in the editing software and then when you upload the video it's really loud...I'm trying to figure it out still :)
When I was kid I used to swim there inside the farm♥️
Amazing, mother nature, and now, we can replicate this in our own homes (kind of)....😞😳🥺😦😧🤗
Stunning video, I love the voice over.
Thank you so much Dylan :)
That was an absolutely beautiful river system that until now, i had never heard of. So much inspiration
This is more beautiful than any reef!
This is God's aquarium ❤️
Great video keep it up👍
Fantastic Video
Thank you so much!!!❤🥰🔥🤲
Thank you for the video! Everything is at the highest level-a General description, the name of the river and the state through which it flows, there is a list of fish and plants. Keep it up!
Habitat natural Beautiful
It's wild to see the roles that characins have taken up, having similar adaptations to cyprinids of the old world.
Nice!
Amazing natural aqua plants !!!!
Beautiful video thank you sir
The most informed narrated underwater biotope video I’ve watched over the years. Excellent pronunciation of plant and animal species. The video length offer viewers an in-depth look of the underwater ecosystem of the of Rio Sucuri. Fabulous!
Next best thing to being there. Great video, thank you for sharing!
Holly ceratophyllum, I have seen this submersed plant from lakes in North America, Southasia, Europe, even in streams in Novosbirsk. In this video we see it again as a dominant species.
Beautiful video excellent naration
So beautiful ❤️ the sunlight shimmer !
Fantastico
So magical 😍
Excellent footage!
The dream! I wanna gooo
The camera work and quality is amazing. Hearing about the habitat and learning is a privilege. Thank you so much for putting in so much effort and sharing this extraordinary world. This is as good as the Nature series, and in a few respects better.
Amazing! What a wonderland!
Pls more of this❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this great video. Very nice to see our aquarium fish in their real habitats and how difficult it is to mimic that in a fish tank :)
Great vid! I went snorkeling on rio Sucuri and was one of the greatest experiences in my life
Beautiful.....Heaven on earth!! Thank you so much for the footage!!❤
I am sooo glad to find your channel. That's the life I dream about...
Just found this and it's very well done. One of the best fresh water habitat videos I've seen. The footage and explanation of what we're seeing are both excellent.
Very interesting
This is my favorite habitat in all the worldThankThank you Tai.
Thank you for such a beutiful video! Love it❤
Amazing truly
The movie is of great quality, shows a lot of valuable news, surprises with many interesting facts🙂. Great description of the film, full of professionalism👍🏻.
I love nature 😍.

😁
Beautiful... Lucky you did not come across the animal that gives its name to the river ;-)
Very well done. Looking forward to more of these.
Wow fantastic video thanks
first video i have seen from you with narration. And your videos goes from very good to first class!! Super! thanks for the entertainment...
This is wonderful! Thank you so much!!
Fantastic and amazing video! I strongly like that you provide us with scientific names of the fishes and plants!
Kind regards from Sweden!
Thank you very much for your kind words and I'm pleased you like the video!
Loooks Great.....

Lindo❤
We need to protect this area at any cost
Wow, just wow. Incredible work.
I just found your channel and am very happy I did. What a gorgeous biotope and thank you for sharing it with us. I love seeing underwater footage of the original biotopes in which we recreate our aquascaped tanks from and have been searching for something just like this channel. Thank you and keep up the great work!
only now aware of your channel. amazing work.. thanks for sharing
amazing
This is put alltogether so well, really needs more views ( the graphic content is ofcourse stunning)
Thank you :D

What a beautiful ecosystem!
Truly amazing. Thanks for sharing
love from india
relaxing and informative
This is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this footage!
Thank you amigo! Very pleased you like it!
Wich plant is the one who has red tops and is extended allwhere? The one who seems like ambulia (I know that is not, but to give a reference).
Nice and very chill video, love It!
Hi Abraham, I'm sorry for the delay in replying! The plant is Myriophyllum aquaticum, under the bright tropical sun, it goes a beautiful orange. We're used to seeing it as green in ponds and aquaria :)
Amazing video! Also the descriptions. Like someone mentioned before, it would be perfect if there would be written the scientific names. Did you eher see in this biotope hyphessobrycon elachys, corydoras hastatus or an otocinclus species?
Thank you! In this habitat I've not seen those species although Otocinclus (I think O. bororo) is meant to be present, according to colleagues. H. elachys and C. hastatus are found lower down, in the floodplains of the Pantanal. :)
Ótimo video
Its a giant aquascape❤️
Izin share 🙏🙏
Awesome... 👍💣❤️🙏
Thank you Akhilesh!
@@biotopia5319 You're welcome... 🙂
Lovely piece of work, thank you very much. Do you know the values of the water parameters? Should we assume that, since it is a karstic spring, water his harder that what we usually assume are the 'Amazonic' conditions?
Also,all your script is very interesting and entertaining, congratulations. But it would be very helpful (to me at least) if the scientific names of fishes and plants would appear on the screen the first time you mention them; I find it hard to foresee how a scientific name would be pronounced in English =)
Hi Antón thank you for your message :) I did want to put subtitles but at the moment it's just a lack of time, it takes ages to do it! I am in the process of moving back to Europe so I don't have so much time, but I have a lot of footage that I will eventually add and I will try to include subtitles when I can. Although it's a karst spring, we found the Ph to be around 7, because there is still lots of organic material and wood from the surrounding forest, which helps balance it out. Temperature was normally 26C.
:)
@@biotopia5319 Thanks for taking the time to answer back. Actually I have no idea about how cumbersome it is to insert text in a video; it was just a wish in case it would be feasible. Thank you for putting your effort into these videos.
Outstanding video. The complete species list, including plants, is fantastic & very useful to any aquarist interested in setting up a biotope aquarium. Do you have any info on the pH, KH, GH, season, & sand type?
Hi there! Thank you for your kind words! I don't have any parameters for this river, but another river in the region, the Rio da Prata, I've got data for. I need to dig it up but if you wanted to message me on instagram, @biotopiatai
I will do mys best to dig it out and send it to you!
Hello from Ukraine
3:00 que peixinho é esse?
Veio junto com meus Rodostomus e até hoje não descobri o nome! ☺️
Jupiaba acanthogaster :)
what are those smaller red fish hidden away in the vegetation? axelrodia riesei?
What is the name of Red Colour little fish 🐟????
Is it just me who really wants some of those little red fish in my tank
I get contradictory reports about Apistogramma commbrae existing here. Any references or footage?
I've never seen them in this habitat, only a few hundred km north in the lowlands of the Pantanal
What is the name of the red tony fish? I wasn’t able to hear it
At 3:36, how come they dont sell that species in the fish stores
Beautiful fish tank. How many Gallons ?
i think u can produce some biotope content for nat geo
Is this all freshwater?
yes :)
What are the red fish
Amazing video thanks! What are the bright red fish?
Hyphessobrycon eques :)
@@biotopia5319 cheers!
Those serpae tetras are not that colourful in the aquarium trade
@@samuelday6899 Hi Samuel, I think a lot of it has to do with diet; in the wild they are constantly eating lots of micro-organisms, lots of protein, all the time. As with flamingos, this may enhance the red colour and the colours of wild-fish generally.
Most of them are characins.
Your video has one drawback - it ends
Thank you Miroslav! That’s the nicest comment I’ve ever had! 😊🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@biotopia5319 I thank you for the wonderful video and I hope it is not the last. Happy New Year!
@@miroslavivanov7220 thank you Miroslav! I will be adding more videos in the coming weeks/months as I can :) Happy New year to you too!
What is the name of Red Colour little fish 🐟????
Idk but serpae tetra is similar and you may like. They are a common fish in the aquarium trade.
