The Orinoco river basin is one of the habitats of the Orinoco Altum where it lives in depressions and between plant roots.
Stones of color similiar to those found in the original biotope and river sand similar to that in the wild habitat.

The aquarium is set-up with stones and driftwood to these fishes hiding places and to make it apprear as natural habitat in the wild.

I usually make the water change 1 time a week with a RO water.
Roberto E. Reis: Fishes and decoration selected properly, but at least one species in the aquarium not mentioned (a loricariine). The aquarium is apparently beautiful and balanced, but the only video presented show very little. Description of tank and external resources weak.
Flávio Lima: The biotope was skillfully recreated, being very beautiful and balanced; however, as noticed, it does not recreates a habitat found in the Guarico state but instead one from the upper Orinoco.
Pablo C. Lehmann: The aquarium is generally in accordance with the biotope in nature, the Pterophyllum altum are very beautiful. However, only two species of fish in this environment may not be very representative. In the video it is difficult to see the species of Corydoras adolfoi, and it is also possible to see another species not registered in the list of a possible Farlowella sp.
