And all went very well

The biotope of the Rio Mineruá, Amazonas, Brazil, was also enriched by some beautiful new angelfish (5) variants from the upper Amazon in Peru



These beautiful angelfishes are from the upper Amazon in Peru. Note: this aquarium has only 2 green discus in an authentic biotope with angelfishes, as in nature (Mineruá), but normaly there should be a group of green discus, not only 2…
