This amazing beautiful creek, in an remote and untouched area of the Colombian Amazon in the region of the Apaporis, never visited by white man before and with a very difficult access (only by foot) was discovered recently by Heiko Bleher with the help of a Macuna Indian. Here some photos of this unique habitat and a underwater film in the same by Natasha Khardina.
The regional Director for the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Mrs. Jovita P. Ayson had suggested to Heiko Bleher to do research in the unspoiled and untouched Wangag River in Gonzaga, Peña Blanca. And with the kind help of Gonzaga’s Municipal Mayor Heiko was able to do an inventory of this pristine river
Heiko was invited by BFAR (Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources), the Director Malkolm I. Sarmiento, Jr. to do research on the Philippine freshwater habitats and its fishes. Heiko started in the north-eastern part of Luzon and was kindly assisted by the regional Director Mrs. Jovita P. Ayson
Heiko’s most recent field trip was to collect the monotypic and most eastern found Cichlidae in south-western Iran restricted to a few locations around the Strait of Hormoz. The area is drying up and this unique species is threatened by extinction as it is only found there…

Earth - a real neck-bending fish, like we, Homo sapiens, can bend our necks...
Heiko Bleher was invited to give lectures in Athens, Greece, on the weekend April 24-25. Nidal Rezeq also invited him for a short field trip. Here are some exiting photos of this research and also a flight lesson over Greece in the ultra-light airplane of the TETRA representative in Greece, Leonidas
Mustafa Kahraman of Neptun-Fora, the TROPICAL’s representative for the last 18 years, was so kind to give to Heiko Bleher a new Scoda to do his field trip in search for still not described loaches in Turkey…
It was impossible to come to the UAE only for Lectures & TV-interviews, Heiko Bleher had to collect the only freshwater fish species known and Natasha photograph it…
During Heiko Bleher’s recent expedition to the northeast of India, together with Sanjay Kumar Das, Peter Guennel and Natasha Khardina, they researched 17 aquatic habitats throughout the region – even in remote Nagaland and found several possibly new species and recorded 75 different ones. Below only a few photos of this amazing and unique trip
Apistogramma species are often misunderstood. These dwarf
cichlids, a favourite fish for many aquarists and hobbyists around the
globe, live in nature in almost all (South American)....
