Help With Info For A Database

[DumeNdlovu]

Hi I working on a project and part of my project is building a database that contain the optimal conditions (temperature, ph etc.) for certain fish species indigenous to Sub-Saharan Africa and i'm struggling to find sources on that and help would be greatly appreciated.

African water is mild temperature, hardy and abit of salt in some portions of the water ( i would know as ive helped in Africa with some water issues ) so i would say 76-80 F* for a start, and when its night it gets to about 50F*, so the fish species their have been accustomed to the water temperature difference

If this is for a serious project for a database you plan to maintain (i.e. not just for a class, etc.) I'd suggest figuring out what species are indigenous and doing a Google Scholar search for scientific articles.  Not everything will be on there, but for anything either relatively well known or relatively well researched there's a great chance that you will find a source with a good reference.  And for the rarer ones, less search results may actually make your life easier.  Good luck!
