Parana River Orino

[krichardson]

I haven't seen xingus in the trade for a while now. I'm suprised no one got a breeding pair out of any.

I got mine from Pedro a few months ago and when I stopped by there last weekend looking for another he said he'd sold his last one the day before.

I only say this because I heard Orinos were notorious for aggression

My orino are big wimps! and get pushed around a little by smaller kels! So im thinking it all depends on that individual fish!

That plays a big part but I have had the same experience with orinos that Ryan mentioned while just about every kel I have had was timid until they got to a respectable size.

Where is Paraná river? A lot of vendors are labeling fish with smaller local areas these days to give the impression they are a new locale

Or possibly they are just giving you a more specific location.

And a higher price

That could have something to do with it.

So these orinos come from Argentina , Paraguay or Brazil. Seems to be far from the other locations of the Rio negro and Orinoco!
Wonder what they will look like

This is what comes out of Rio Parana to my understanding.
