Watch Hernando Gil collect Farlowellas in the faster waters of a stream in the upper Rio Meta drainage.

Some of the animals we found in the upstream pool include Crenicichla sp. “Belly Crawler,” Hemiloricaria eigenmanni “Whiptail Catfish,” a water turtle, and Corydoras metae, the target species this day.
