I thought show was mostly too much dramatization & them trouble shooting equipment or talking of the "dangers"----------very little info on the fish, though some shots were cool

Amazon Abyss SHOW on discovery
- Thread starter Tigrinus
- Start date
yeah... not enough focus on the fish .I guess thats the best they could do since
the murky water of the amazon would not let them shoot vids so well.
The pike is nice ... anyone can id what kind it is?

which one are you talkin about? I saw at least a Crenicichla johanna, and a Crenicichla cincta (during the e-eel part). They did have some pretty kewl plecos and cats. I swear...on that deep dive, that ones large cat looked like a lince!!

Can't ever be happy with what ya got huh? I am not trying to offend but seriously...how often do you see a documentary with a focus on fish? Hardly ever. I was talking crap about it for a bit but then I realized..."Wait...here is a show on TV about fish!!! How often do we see that?" It wasen't some guy wrestling a crocodile. It wasen't lions killing zebra in Africa. I wasen't some stupid countdown about the most deangerous snakes and insects. It was not some show like Animal Facoff or another stupid Shark Attack show. This was a real documentary for once about something hardly anyone knows about. I learned a few things and got to see a lot of my favorite fish in a place I can only dream of visiting. I loved the show. I was actually suprised about how much fish they had in it. I thought the focus would be otters, caimen and other "more appealing" animals.
In the deep dive one of the bait fish looked like a big tigrinis, and a couple of the larger cats feeding looked like one of the pims.
they didn't show any arowanas or arapaimas...!!! it seemed like most o the show they filmed that broken robotic thing and trying to fix it.. what kind of fish was those scavengers eating it kinda looked like a bichir or wolffish...
