29g blackwater biotope- acuario de rio negro

[limeslide]

very nice!

I don't know much Spanish (despite the fact that I use the Spanish language to communicate with my parents) but those names look a bit off.... and if this is in Brazil, why isn't it Portuguese? xD

I'm not sure if I should say these, but here are some options
El Acuario Negro (Black Aquarium, as in.... Rio Negro... xD)
Riocuario (play on "River" and Aquarium" roughly translates to Rivaquarium LOL)

go ahead!

zach- i didnt want to use acuario de rio negro. because i wasnt sure if all of my fish were native to that river. so then i was gonna use acuario de rio de janeiro but then i found out that one of the fish wasnt native there. cant remember for the life of me the conflicts though. im gonna start a new thread asking if either those rivers would or wouldnt be acurate.

i could just use acuario de rio negro. and make a note that it says rio negro for black river instead of the acual river...


in spanish

aquarium of amazon basin - acuario de la Ceunca Amazonica

aquarium of black water - acuariuo de aqua negro

[orchidman]

just found out that all my fishes are native to brazil! so i dont have to specify any river....

in portugese

brazilian black water aquarium - aquário de água negra brasileira

aquarium of the black river - aqurio do rio preto
