What species can be found here? I know (at least I've heard) temensis, intermedia and orinos. Sorry for the bad pictures, but what do you think these are? Hard to tell orino from ocell and mono, but are those two species even found here?

guess i was right about mono and ocel, but wrong about intermedia being found in Rio Orinoco, but nigromaculata can be found there as well....is that correct?

they're not my fish, but MTN PIKE's. I can't really say much so this thread doesn't get deleted. I wanted to know for sure what other species could come form there. they may get some other p-bass from Rio Orinoco soon, too. I've been thinking about getting one, but I have too many fish growing out already and the p-bass I'm growing out are less than 2 inches and I don't want them getting eaten.
 
Ya you can get Interms from the orinaco Well if ya want a different looking orino these may be them i like my gold one very unique color...

based on the pictures from the sticky thread, these seem to be maybe the nicest variant. I might just have to get one now :nilly: I was going to be good and not do it, but IDK if I can anymore.

Hulon I dont think yours came from the orinoco because all of the orinoco orinos rapps brought in a few years ago are green. Funwow got one




yours is def special though .. you dont come accross gold orinos often :)

The Orinoco is a big river.
Intermedia, orinos, and temensis come from the Orinoco.
