Fish in The Wild (videos)

[CassCats]

Thought this would be nice to share. I love the videos made by Below Water, they have some really good content. Plus, I enjoy watching fish in their natural environments. There is much to learn from them

I changed the title, as I think I will post other videos I come across that showcase great examples of our fish in the wild.

Biotopia is another fantastic channel...

Check out the ember tetras here. What's particularly interesting is the flow rate of their environment. They contend with much stronger flow rates than most of us even consider for aquariums, and make false claims on saying they need minimal flow.

It starts off with other footage, you can skip ahead to the underwater footage, or watch from start to see the other habitat around them

That's a revelation in so many videos like this. There a youtube video of one of my holy grail species, Nannostomus bifasciatus, in situ in a stream in French Guiana foraging happily in swift--and I mean really swift--current.

I've even seen some with angelfish and discus with a bit of flow as well. I'll have to do some digging for those. I expect to share a lot to this thread.

Another channel I follow posted a video recently of nannostomus in some fast flowing water as well, so I shall take opportunity to share that here

The current is so swift and the fish moving so fast, it is hard to get a fix on what species it is but the best freeze-frame image I can get suggests N. digrammus, which also makes sense since the species is known to be from the Amazon's Tapajos Basin, the locale of the video.

Love this kind of stuff. Thank you.
