  • 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
    Fish species appearing in this video:
    Characidium laterale (Boulenger 1895)
    Characidium zebra Eigenmann 1909
    Leporinus friderici (Bloch, 1794)
    Steindachnerina brevipinna (Eigenmann & Eigenmann, 1889)
    Prochilodus lineatus (Valenciennes, 1837)
    Bryconops melanurus (Bloch, 1794)
    Acestrorhynchus pantaneiro Menezes, 1992
    Astyanax lacustris (Lütken, 1875)
    Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus (Spix & Agassiz 1829)
    Hemigrammus tridens Eigenmann 1907
    Hyphessobrycon eques (Steindachner, 1882)
    Jupiaba acanthogaster (Eigenmann, 1911)
    Moenkhausia bonita Benine, Castro & Sabino, 2004
    Moenkhausia dichroura (Kner 1858)
    Moenkhausia forestii Benine, Mariguela & Oliveira, 2009
    Moenkhausia oligolepis (Günther, 1864)
    Phenacogaster tegatus (Eigenmann, 1911)
    Brycon hilarii (Valenciennes, 1850)
    Salminus brasiliensis (Cuvier, 1816)
    Crenicichla lepidota Heckel, 1840

The only issue is that I didn't have kit to measure parameters there and the one I can request from my university out there costs about 20000 USD...so they don't let me borrow it very often! However, in another river I monitored nearby, the water is about ph 7.3, temp about 25/26C.

      Ah those are helpful. Harder water than expected and I wonder if this could be a contributing factor for the Hyphessobrycon Eques looking as red as they are in this system as well as the lower water temperature.

      Я проконсультировалась с Кристель Кассельманн, экспертом по водным растениям, и она объяснила, что это Echinodorus macrophyllus, потому что они мужские. Первоначально растение было описано как Alisma macrophyllum, потому что пол Alisma нейтрум.
      Но когда вы перемещаете вид в другой род, вы должны изменить окончание имени «um» на «us».
      Она сказала, что то же самое и с Echinodorus floribundus, который сначала был описан как Alisma floribundum, или Echinodorus grandiflorus, который впервые был описан как Alisma grandiflorum.
      Из-за первоначального описания 'Alisma' есть путаница с текущими названиями, но это E. macrophyllus :)

      you're right, in this case though, the location is an eco-tourist destination, and they only permit 100 visitors per day, in small staggered groups, who must follow a guide closely. For me, I am able to explore more as a scientist, but most visitors are more carefully monitored :)

      I don't have hardness but ph in these habitats is about 7.3 and temp ranges from 24-26C
