The trip is put together every year by George from Shark Aquarium (Hillside, NJ, a vendor on this site with over 20 yrs. experience in Amazon travel )
Not a bicuda (I used to own one) ....to me it looked like Freshwater Barracuda .
My tank was pretty stocked but I brought back a boulengerella maculata to keep company to the one I already had.

I absolutely had a blast....your country is amaizing. A trip like this it's about way more than just collecting fish ( can't believe I said that on MFK....I'm going to burn :))...living on the Amazon for a week , listening to the jungle, experiencing the local culture , getting to know the people....it's something you can't really capture in a picture .
I can't wait to come back to Peru to visit the north part of the country and hike in the Andes.
