I am working on a few set ups that I will try to keep species that are found in the same areas. I’ve tried to do research (fishing reports etc) but it seems to be quite difficult to find what I’m looking for so thought I’d check here.

starting with Lophiosilurus alexandri(Pac-Man catfish) I’ve found that myleus micans shares the São Francisco river. I am still looking for a few different options of other species large enough to keep with the Pac-Man cat found in the São Francisco.

the others which I cannot find much information regarding at all are crenicichla rosemariae and cichla marinae

Quick search Google Wikipedia fish species list of the Sao Francisco River.

I have kept a few of the cichlids from this area.
They will work for a while, if the Pac-man is small enough
Crenichla saxatillis left & right, ichlasoma dimerus middle

mine is currently around 8” I know these guys can reach around 2 feet at adult size give or take. Do you know of anything that’ll work for the long term?
