Es una planta acuática, crece en aguas de hasta 4 m de profundidad, con tallos conductores de 2 m o más de longitud, produciendo raíce a intervalos a lo largo de ellos. Hojas en grupos de cuatro a ocho, de 1–4 cm de largo y 2–5 mm de ancho, con un ápice agudo. Es dioica: plantas con flores masculinas y plantas con flores femeninas; las flores de 12–20 mm diámetro, con tres pétalos anchos, blancos, y redondeados, de 8–10 mm de largo en plantas macho, y de 6–7 mm de largo en palntas femeninas&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Su adaptacion a bajas temperaturas y su capacidad para producir grandes cantidades de oxígeno la hacen especialmente indicada para su mantenimiento en estanques y acuarios de agua fria, aunque debemos controlarla para que no acabe por invadirlo por completo. Tambien puede adaptarse al acuario tropical siempre que tengamos en cuenta que las aguas cálidas suponen que la planta vaya degradándose progresivamente.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/S60LNmnxdjA" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Es una planta poco exigente con las condiciones acuáticas, aunque prefiere las aguas alcalinas (7- 10), ligeramente duras (hasta 20Gh), bastante iluminacion y nutrientes, y una temperatura entre los 15 y los 20ºC. Es recomendable algo de abonado con hierro, magnesio y potasio, y sobre todo con CO2, ya que es una gran consumidora de este elemento pudiendo llegar a provocar subidas del Ph.&lt;br /&gt;
Tambien es una excelente consumidora de compuestos nitrogenados nocivos.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Una escasa iluminacion o plantado a la sombra provocara en la planta el debilitamiento progresivo de los tallos y su amarilleamiento, sin embargo, con una temperatura mas baja tambien sus exigencias de luz disminuyen. Del mismo modo tambien le afectan negativamente las aguas acidas.&lt;br /&gt;
Se beneficia tambien de forma especial de los cambios parciales de agua, y mas cuanto mas alta sea la temperatura.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/EOr857pbIgQ" width="420"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En su enraizado, por lo general muy lento, ha de ser ayudada con la colocación de protecciones u objetos decorativos que impidan que sean continuamente desenterradas por los peces de nuestro acuario. Por otra parte, la raiz de la planta le sirve mas como anclaje que para tomar alimento, tarea que realiza de mayoritariamente de forma foliar. Es recomendable un sustrato de tipo limoso, arenoso o arcilloso que sea rico en calcio.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Curiosamente, a pesar de la poca importacion de su raiz, el tallo de la planta produce brotes de pequeñas raices a intervalos regulares que aparecen sobre todo cuando la aportacion de nutrientes es baja.&lt;/div&gt;

La Ciudad de México estrena acuario con 230 especies y 5,000 ejemplares&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;div class="subtitulo"&gt;
El Acuario Inbursa ofrece un espacio de 3,500 metros donde los visitantes pueden alimentar y tocar a algunas de las especies&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Uno de los acuarios privados más grandes de 
América Latina, con 230 especies y 5,000 ejemplares en un espacio 
subterráneo de cuatro niveles, abrió sus puertas al público este 
miércoles 11 de junio en la Ciudad de México.&amp;nbsp;


&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El 30 de mayo pasado el jefe de Gobierno capitalino, Miguel Ángel Mancera, y el empresario Carlos Slim presentaron el Acuario Inbursa, un centro de entretenimiento alrededor de la flora y fauna marina que tiene un espacio total de 3,500 metros cuadrados de superficie. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tiburones, tortugas, caballitos de mar, pirañas, estrellas de mar, corales medusas y barracudas son algunos de los habitantes del primer recinto marino de acceso al público en la capital del país, según un comunicado del acuario. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Los visitantes “tendrán la posibilidad de tocar y alimentar a las diferentes especies”, además de que recibirán información didáctica e interactiva. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El acuario también contará con dos especies de pingüinos, que por el momento están en cuarentena previo a su traslado a la ciudad.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Para su construcción, el Grupo Carso trajo las 230 especies, con las que inicia el acuario, como un proyecto de conservación en conjunto con los acuarios de Veracruz y Mazatlán, así como el Instituto Tecnológico de Boca del Río.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/AS-1q9WPuI4" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
De acuerdo con sus diseñadores, el sistema de filtrado de agua en el acuario permite reutlizar diariamente 22 millones de litros de agua de mar que fueron traídos de las costas de Veracruz en pipas de acero inoxidable. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
“A través de dichos proceso de filtración se busca replicar las mismas condiciones de vida del mar para que los hábitats de las especies se conserven”, dijo el Acuario Inbursa en su comunicado. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
La compañía, una de las más grandes de México, invirtió 250 millones de pesos para la construcción del recinto, ubicado frente a la Plaza Carso, en la zona de Polanco. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En la inauguración, Mancera destacó la tecnología similar a los acuarios de otras ciudades del mundo. “Se busca ser un punto de referencia turístico en el mundo con el acuario más grande del país y nos pone en los comparativos con los del mundo”. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Los organizadores indicaron que el costo de entrada será de 129 pesos, pero Mancera dijo que habrá “esfuerzos necesarios para brindar accesibilidad a todas las personas”. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Para la realización de este acuario participaron al menos 50 especialistas provenientes de España, Alemania y Filadelfia, Estados Unidos, reportó el sitio Obras.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Misión&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Inspirar pasión por la vida marina. Crear protectores del mundo marino.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Descripción&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
La inspiración para construir el Acuario Inbursa es producto del 
grave deterioro de los ecosistemas marinos y de la necesidad de 
concientizar a la gente y ayudar a conservar el mundo marino. El Acuario
 Inbursa no sólo es un centro de exhibición, también es un centro de 
conservación.&lt;br /&gt;

La Echinodorus Ozelot es una planta de hoja en roseta del tipo de 
plantas llamadas Espadas. Es una planta especial para principiantes ya 
que no requiere de mayores condiciones de iluminacion ni CO2. El rasgo 
distintivo mas notorio son sus hojas Verdes y marrones decoradas con 
pintas rojas. Aunque su crecimiento no es demasiado rapido, esta planta 
puede alcanzar un tamaño bastante grande. &lt;/div&gt;

Es una plata de 
roseta, con anchas hojas espadiformes verdes, de contornos ondulados y 
salpicadas con manchas irregulares de color marrón que varían su 
tonalidad con la intensidad lumínica y la edad de las hojas. &lt;br /&gt;
Se la puede cultivar emergida. &lt;br /&gt;
Su oferta en las tiendas especializadas suele ser en esa forma, por lo 
que apreciaremos unos tallos más largos y sus hojas ovaladas y más 
cortas.
&lt;/div&gt;

en pocos días llegará a la superficie para allí ofrecernos sus bonitas 
flores de unos 2 cm con tres pétalos blancos y en su centro generosos 
estambres de un amarillo intenso.
&lt;br /&gt;
Junto con las flores, del tallo emergido se van desarrollando plántulas,
 las cuales al cabo de una o dos semanas pueden ser replantadas.
&lt;br /&gt;
Es importante tener en cuenta que la planta realiza un esfuerzo muy 
grande en esta tarea, por lo que su salud puede verse menguada en el 
proceso si posee alguna carencia.
&lt;br /&gt;
Se pueden ir eliminando las hojas más viejas, cortándolas lo más cerca posible del sustrato.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
The Amazon biotope aquarium is a popular set up kept by numerous aquarists, from beginners to experts. Most beginners start out with community aquariums with fish and plants from all corners of the world, but keeping a biotope aquarium is by no means more difficult than keeping an international community aquarium. If you are a beginner, you should therefore not hesitate to set up an Amazon biotope aquarium, as long as you are okay with sticking to sturdy plants and fish species from the Amazon region until you gain more experience. Setting up a biotope aquarium is actually ideal for a beginner since all plants and fishes will need exactly the same water conditions, water temperature etcetera to thrive. So, what is a biotope aquarium? As you might have guessed already, a biotope aquarium is simply an aquarium containing plants and animals from the same biotope. An Amazon biotope aquarium will for instance only contain plants and fish native to the Amazon region in South America.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Aquarium decoration&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Aquarium decoration&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Amazon waters are densely grown with aquatic plants and including a lot of live plants is recommended if you want to mimic the Amazonian environment. Also include plenty of bogwood and allow the bogwood to colour the water. Hardcore enthusiasts arrange the bogwood in a tangled fashion to make it look as if it had got stuck in the aquarium after drifting down the Rio Amazon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Water chemistry and quality&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The water in the River Amazon and its tributaries is soft and acidic, and most waterways have dark water. The darkness is caused by naturally occurring humic acid. The recommended pH range in an Amazon biotope is pH 6.0-6.9. Some species will prefer even more acidic water, down to 5.0-5.5.  When it comes to water hardness, the GH should be around 3-7 and the KH 2-4. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keeping the water quality up is naturally important. The amounts of ammonia and nitrite should be below detectable levels and the amount o nitrate should never be allowed to rise above 10 ppm. How often you have to change the water depends on aquarium size, filtration, fish species and fish density, but changing 20-25% on a weekly basis is a good rule of thumb. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always keep an eye on the pH-value in your aquarium since the bogwood can make it drop to far down. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Water temperature &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The recommended water temperature for most Amazonian species is 74-78 degrees F (23.5-25.5 degrees C).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Amazon biotope light&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Light &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The sun is very strong in tropical South America, but as mentioned above the water in the Amazon region is often very dark due to high levels of humic acid. The water is also shadowed by overhanging lush vegetation in most parts of the Amazonas. If you want to keep light craving plants in your Amazon biotope aquarium you will need 2-3 tubes with spectrums for plant growth that stretches the entire length of the aquarium and comes with proper reflectors. If you do not have a lot of light, stick to low-demanding Amazon plant species.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Amazon biotope fishes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of popular aquarium fish hails from the Amazon region and will love to be placed in an Amazon biotope aquarium. If they have been captive bred for generations they might have adapted a tolerance for harder and less acidic conditions, but many of them really flourish when they are placed back in the type of environment that their ancestors hail from. Be careful however, changes always have to be slow and gradual. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to set up an Amazon biotope aquarium, you can for instance use almost all types of small tetras, since a lot of them (but not all!) hail from the Amazon region. The Amazon region is also home to a lot of popular catfish species, such as Whiptail catfish, Bristlenose catfish and Corydoras catfish. Other suggestions are Hatchetfish, Pencilfish and larger characins such as the commonly available Silver Dollars. If you have some previous experience on keeping the water quality up, you can for instance go for Dwarf cichlids. Angelfish is another alternative, but not if you want to keep small tetras because the Angelfish will consider them lunch.  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Amazon biotope plants &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A lot of commonly available plants hail from the Amazon region. You can for instance pick plants from the Echinodorus genus, e.g. Echinodorus paniculatu (Amazon sword), Echinodorus tenellus (Dwarf sword plant) and Echinodorus amazonicus. Eleocharis acicularis, also known as Hair grass, is another popular Amazon species. Cabomba and Myriophyllum are other alternatives, but they need quit a lot of light to do well.&lt;br /&gt;

 plant with lanceolate leaves on petioles. This plant has characteristic
 light-green leaves which form a good contrast to the darker aquarium 
plants. It is most beautiful when planted in groups. In good conditions 
it produces runners which spread over the bottom. Growth is more compact
 when planted in a pot or between stones or other objects. Very light

Most beginners start out with community aquariums with fish and plants from all corners of the world, but keeping a biotope aquarium is by no means more difficult than keeping an international community aquarium. If you are a beginner, you should therefore not hesitate to set up an Amazon biotope aquarium, as long as you are okay with sticking to sturdy plants and fish species from the Amazon region until you gain more experience. Setting up a biotope aquarium is actually ideal for a beginner since all plants and fishes will need exactly the same water conditions, water temperature etcetera to thrive. So, what is a biotope aquarium? As you might have guessed already, a biotope aquarium is simply an aquarium containing plants and animals from the same biotope. An Amazon biotope aquarium will for instance only contain plants and fish native to the Amazon region in South America.&amp;nbsp; Aquarium decoration Aquarium decoration The Amazon waters are densely grown with aquatic plants and including a lot of live plants is recommended if you want to mimic the Amazonian environment. Also include plenty of bogwood and allow the bogwood to colour the water. Hardcore enthusiasts arrange the bogwood in a tangled fashion to make it look as if it had got stuck in the aquarium after drifting down the Rio Amazon. Water chemistry and quality The water in the River Amazon and its tributaries is soft and acidic, and most waterways have dark water. The darkness is caused by naturally occurring humic acid. The recommended pH range in an Amazon biotope is pH 6.0-6.9. Some species will prefer even more acidic water, down to 5.0-5.5. When it comes to water hardness, the GH should be around 3-7 and the KH 2-4. Keeping the water quality up is naturally important. The amounts of ammonia and nitrite should be below detectable levels and the amount o nitrate should never be allowed to rise above 10 ppm. How often you have to change the water depends on aquarium size, filtration, fish species and fish density, but changing 20-25% on a weekly basis is a good rule of thumb. Always keep an eye on the pH-value in your aquarium since the bogwood can make it drop to far down. Water temperature The recommended water temperature for most Amazonian species is 74-78 degrees F (23.5-25.5 degrees C).&amp;nbsp; Amazon biotope light Light The sun is very strong in tropical South America, but as mentioned above the water in the Amazon region is often very dark due to high levels of humic acid. The water is also shadowed by overhanging lush vegetation in most parts of the Amazonas. If you want to keep light craving plants in your Amazon biotope aquarium you will need 2-3 tubes with spectrums for plant growth that stretches the entire length of the aquarium and comes with proper reflectors. If you do not have a lot of light, stick to low-demanding Amazon plant species.&amp;nbsp; Amazon biotope fishes A lot of popular aquarium fish hails from the Amazon region and will love to be placed in an Amazon biotope aquarium. If they have been captive bred for generations they might have adapted a tolerance for harder and less acidic conditions, but many of them really flourish when they are placed back in the type of environment that their ancestors hail from. Be careful however, changes always have to be slow and gradual. If you want to set up an Amazon biotope aquarium, you can for instance use almost all types of small tetras, since a lot of them (but not all!) hail from the Amazon region. The Amazon region is also home to a lot of popular catfish species, such as Whiptail catfish, Bristlenose catfish and Corydoras catfish. Other suggestions are Hatchetfish, Pencilfish and larger characins such as the commonly available Silver Dollars. If you have some previous experience on keeping the water quality up, you can for instance go for Dwarf cichlids. Angelfish is another alternative, but not if you want to keep small tetras because the Angelfish will consider them lunch. PDF Files Fishes from the upper Yuruá river, Amazon basin, Peru Data Base Freshwater fish of Perú Fish Base&amp;nbsp; Amazon biotope plants A lot of commonly available plants hail from the Amazon region. You can for instance pick plants from the Echinodorus genus, e.g. Echinodorus paniculatu (Amazon sword), Echinodorus tenellus (Dwarf sword plant) and Echinodorus amazonicus. Eleocharis acicularis, also known as Hair grass, is another popular Amazon species. Cabomba and Myriophyllum are other alternatives, but they need quit a lot of light to do well.

&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Common Names:&lt;/b&gt; Altum, altum angel, deep angel, Orinoco angel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Type Locality:&lt;/b&gt; Atabapo, Río Orinoco, Venezuela&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Range:&lt;/b&gt;
 Amazon River Basin: the upper Negro River drainage; Orinoco River 
Basin: tributaries of the upper Orinoco River (Inírida and Atabapo 
rivers) to Puerto Ayacucho&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Taxonomic Troubles:&lt;/b&gt; This is the original name. Beware that various populations of P. scalare are being sold as altums, e.g., “Peruvian altums.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Size:&lt;/b&gt; 18 cm (7 inches) long and up to 30 cm (12 inches) tall.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Preferred Water Chemistry:&lt;/b&gt; Tropical freshwater, very soft and very acidic (pH 4.2 to 6.2). Best to keep the temperature above 28°C (82°F).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Difficulty:&lt;/b&gt;
 An extremely difficult species to maintain, and even more difficult to 
spawn. The most success has been with extremely soft and acidic water of
 perfect quality. This fish has no tolerance for dissolved wastes. The 
altum angel is suitable only for advanced&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Tank Setup:&lt;/b&gt;
 Plants and wood will provide necessary cover for this skittish species.
 A very large (and high) aquarium with powerful filtration and frequent,
 large water changes are required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Feeding:&lt;/b&gt; A 
carnivore and stealth predator. Newly imported specimens will probably 
require live foods, but once they are feeding well they will usually 
take frozen foods as well. Like their cousins P. scalare, they will eat 
any tankmates small enough to ingest, met&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Breeding:&lt;/b&gt;
 The altum frustrates hobbyists trying to spawn them. In many cases 
where a pair is induced to spawn, they do so only once and then never 
again despite a full arsenal of tricks such as massive water changes, 
temperature changes, plenty of live food, etc. Virtually all specimens 
in the trade are wild caught.&lt;br /&gt;

striking fish with bold vertical stripes and massively long dorsal and 
anal fins. Light browns and dark chocolates occur in place of the silver
 and black colors of the common angel &lt;i&gt;P. scalare&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Notes:&lt;/b&gt;
 This is the Holy Grail for many cichlid fans. Expensive and hard to 
find, this fish is just about the opposite of the common angelfish: 
While P. scalare is hardy, adaptable, and easy to spawn, &lt;i&gt;P. altum&lt;/i&gt;
 is delicate, finicky, and near-impossible to spawn. There are those who
 say that the regular angelfish was like that at first, but today many 
aquarists bring in wild-caught scalares and breed them, while altums 
still thwart just about everyone. It will undoubtedly be better once a 
reliable breeding protocol is established and we have tank-raised altums
 to work with, but they are still likely to be difficult fish. It is 
very important that you report any success with this species so that 
other hobbyists can benefit from your findings.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En la definición más amplia de paisajismo acuático, es decir la representación de un paisaje (acuático o no) en los confines de un acuario, queda implícito que en el caso de la representación del lecho de un rio amazónico, o de un fondo rocoso del Tanganyka, las plantas estarán practicamente ausentes. En estos acuarios sin plantas, el interés lo aportan el hardscape y los peces. Entonces, ¿qué diferencias hay entre un acuario de biotopo y uno paisajístico? Aunque no hay una respuesta fácil, posiblemente la más explicatica sea “el orden”, entendido como la disposición de todos los elementos, que en los acuarios paisajistas nunca es el azar. Todo debe estar en su sitio, no se admiten hojas secas sobre la arena que una coridora pueda mover. En las propias palabras del creador de estos acuarios, &lt;b&gt;Jeffrey Senske&lt;/b&gt; de &lt;a href="http://www.aquariumdesigngroup.com/"&gt;Aquarium Desing Group&lt;/a&gt;, están pensados como un biotopo de diseño.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7q481V5P2OERH-8dqLmch22VpDRPeV14U5BfJ-wmRosJqjkCfTW7TAWavsaTLP8JfL1ngM6SATt8Gg0w9AX1CSdvg0QzLhBq4M3wViPjXjO7Quq-UD2dWW_erNl46yEIuY_GIhkK4qzE/s1600/5_1aquarium_altum_fishtank.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7q481V5P2OERH-8dqLmch22VpDRPeV14U5BfJ-wmRosJqjkCfTW7TAWavsaTLP8JfL1ngM6SATt8Gg0w9AX1CSdvg0QzLhBq4M3wViPjXjO7Quq-UD2dWW_erNl46yEIuY_GIhkK4qzE/s1600/5_1aquarium_altum_fishtank.jpg" height="274" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;P. Altum en Hardscape&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
¿Y las plantas? Bajo mi punto de vista no son necesarias estéticamente imprescindibles, esto depende del tipo de acuario paisajistico que se elija, como es le caso. De hecho, en algunos acuarios plantados, como muchos &lt;a href="http://www.google.es/search?q=iwagumi&amp;amp;oe=utf-8&amp;amp;rls=org.mozilla:es-ES:official&amp;amp;client=firefox-a&amp;amp;um=1&amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;amp;hl=es&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;source=og&amp;amp;sa=N&amp;amp;tab=wi&amp;amp;ei=VSQ5T7qGNtSxhAe62IzTCA&amp;amp;biw=1280&amp;amp;bih=622&amp;amp;sei=WCQ5T76_EdS1hAfJo4DvAQ"&gt;Iwagumi &lt;/a&gt;con sólo una especie tapizante, se trata a las plantas como un elemento inerte más, deben ser como una alfombra lisa y compacta. Claro está que mantener a las plantas en este estado conlleva un reto mayor, pero también más edificante que no sólo una composición con troncos y piedras que permanecerán inmutables a lo largo del tiempo,  salvo alguna irrupción de algas que por otra parte será fácil de combatir controlando las horas de luz o simplemente con un alguicida. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;

&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Al respecto, cabe mencionar que el acuario mostrado con los P.altum se mantienen con solo cuatro horas de luz al día y un cambio del 75% del agua semanal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
En este punto, está claro que las funciones de las plantasno son de vital importancia dentro de la línea paisajista hardscape. Sin embargo, es importante notar que el tratamiento del agua debe ser optimo para el completo bienestar de los habitantes del acuario.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The magazine contains information on aquariums and fish species that both beginning and advanced hobbyists can use. It provides two question-and-answer departments (one for freshwater fish and the other for marine fish) as well as regular columns: Ask Jack (on discus care), Cichlidophiles (on New and Old World cichlids), Livebearers Unlimited, The Planted Tank, Top of the Food Chain (on predatory and "monster" fish), The Reefer (on reef tanks), Fish of the Month, Marine Invert of the Month, and Japanese aquascaper Takashi Amano's monthly "Nature Aquarium" article series. It contains many fish-related advertisements, and also contains notices and event schedules posted by aquarium societies and organizations. The magazine also has an associated website.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Description&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
A clearly written reference book for freshwater aquarists intent on success with aquatic plants. Lots of sound science, with black and white line drawings, diagrams, and charts. (There are four color images of the author's aquariums.) The author's expertise shines through in a no-frills self-published book.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Excerpt&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
"This
 book is unique. For it explains the underlying mechanisms of the 
aquarium ecosystem—how plants affect the ecosystem and how the ecosystem
 affects the plants. It shows that plants are not just decorative but 
can also be quite useful in keeping fish healthy and reducing aquarium 
maintenance."&lt;/div&gt;

Pistia is a genus of aquatic plant in the arum family, Araceae. The single species it comprises, Pistia stratiotes, is often called water cabbage, water lettuce, Nile cabbage, or shellflower. Its native distribution is uncertain, but probably pantropical; it was first discovered from the Nile near Lake Victoria in Africa. It is now present, either naturally or through human introduction, in nearly all tropical and subtropical fresh waterways. The genus name is derived from the Greek word πιστός (pistos), meaning "water," and refers to the aquatic nature of the plants. &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
It is a perennial monocotyledon with thick, soft leaves that form a rosette. It floats on the surface of the water, its roots hanging submersed beneath floating leaves. The leaves can be up to 14&amp;nbsp;cm long and have no stem. They are light green, with parallel veins, wavy margins and are covered in short hairs which form basket-like structures which trap air bubbles, increasing the plant's buoyancy. The flowers are dioecious, and are hidden in the middle of the plant amongst the leaves. Small green berries form after successful fertilization. The plant can also undergo asexual reproduction. Mother and daughter plants are connected by a short stolon, forming dense mats.&lt;br /&gt;

This year's grand prize winning
 layout resembles the tropical rainforest of the Amazon, as its title 
states. In the past, there were many layouts with an expression of trees
 using driftwood and mosses, but what makes this layout special is the 
realistic expression of canopies of a tropical rainforest, which 
consisted of many trees. We see the creator's high technical skills in 
the canopies created by the skillful arrangement of twiggy driftwood and
 mosses. The presence of white sand in the center and arrangement of 
stones placed on both sides also contributed to create natural tropical 
rainforest scenery. The selection of fish and the timing of the 
photograph are just perfect, and this layout deserves the honor of grand
 prize.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Ichthyophthirius multifiliis&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
El Ichthyophthirius multifiliis es un protozoario ciliado, vive parasitando los peces de agua dulce. Se localiza en la piel e inicia su ciclo de desarrollo, produciendo un quiste visible de color blanco, que al madurar explota liberando nuevos parásitos que infectan a otros ejemplares. Normalmente un pez puede ser atacado simultáneamente por muchos protozoos. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/Ichthyophthiriose.JPG/262px-Ichthyophthiriose.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Pez afectado por el Ichthyophthirius multifiliis.&lt;br /&gt;
Se notan múltiples quistes como puntos blancos. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
La enfermedad del punto blanco en acuarios de agua dulce está causada por la presencia de Ichthyophthirius multifiliis. La acción de este agente patógeno puede verse agravada por la aparición de otros parásitos que afectan a la piel y a las branquias del animal. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a6/ClownLoachesWithIch2.JPG/262px-ClownLoachesWithIch2.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Joven Chromobotia macracanthus con Ichthyophtiriosis.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Los puntos blancos brillantes, de hasta 1 mm de diámetro, aparecen sobre todo en el lomo y en las aletas, permaneciendo estas pegadas al cuerpo. Los quistes pueden unirse y formar manchas mayores. Frecuentes movimientos para restregarse contra el suelo o los adornos, como si quisieran quitarse así los parásitos. La respiración se vuelve irregular. En algunos casos la infestación se limita a las agallas.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Tratamiento &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En algunos peces que soportan altas temperaturas, suele ser suficiente elevar a 30º C la temperatura del agua para que el parásito libre muera y el enquistado se desprenda aceleradamente de la piel. Este tratamiento es recomendado, por ejemplo, para los especímenes juveniles de Blue Dempsey (o Jack Dempsey Azul), pese a que soportan perfectamente tratamientos químicos. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Puede decirse que el verde de malaquita es el medicamento básico que se viene empleando a partir de experiencias realizadas entre 1959 y 1961 por diversos investigadores. Ajustes en las dosis y combinaciones con otros productos lo hacen menos tóxico y más efectivo. El problema apareció cuando al aplicarse en peces para consumo humano (carpas y truchas) se comprobó que los peces adultos así tratados no resultaban aptos para alimentación humana. A partir de ese momento quedó limitado para tratamientos de alevines y ejemplares jóvenes. El verde de malaquita fue prohibido en medicamentos para humanos hace ya muchos años. En cuanto a los peces ornamentales, no existe ningún problema en utilizarlo ya que, en dosis adecuadas y eventualmente potenciado con otros productos, termina destruyendo el citocromo c del parásito, al tiempo que ejerce una acción estimulante para que abandone rápidamente la piel (Deufel, 1960 y Amlacher, 1961). &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Por otro lado las observaciones de aficionados al acuarismo con tetra cardenal y otros peces de aguas ácidas, permitieron comprobar que Ichthyophthirius multifiliis no puede sobrevivir en aguas con pH muy bajos. Wagner (1960) hizo la demostración práctica de que a pH 5,5 los quistes mueren, interrumpiendo el proceso de infestación. Este sería el motivo por el cual ciertos peces amazónicos (como los tetras), están libres de este parásito en su ambiente natural y al mismo tiempo son mucho más proclives a enfermarse de “ictht” cuando se los coloca en un ambiente inadecuado, ya que carecen de defensas contra el parásito en su información genética. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Otra ayuda al tratamiento de peces infectados para consumo, fue la comprobación que los parásitos libres mueren al cabo de 36-72 horas si no logran encontrar un huésped a quien parasitar. Trasladando cada 12 horas los peces de un recipiente o estanque a otro y sin necesidad de medicar, los peces quedan libres de parásitos al cabo de 84 horas. Otro tanto ocurre con los peces de acuario. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
Sin duda que al aficionado acuarista le resulta mucho más práctico y económico dirigirse a un comercio del ramo, adquirir un medicamento contra puntos blancos y resolver el problema rápidamente. Consultando con el proveedor respecto a los peces y su resistencia al tratamiento, se podrán evacuar dudas, no obstante lo cual siempre que se aplique un medicamento por primera vez en un acuario (como ya mencionamos) deberá observarse la reacción de los peces durante al menos las dos horas siguientes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Metronidazol (FLAGYL)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El Metronidazol es un medicamento utilizado para el tratamiento de 
flagelados intestinales e infecciones por bacterias anaeróbicas en 
humanos, que también aplica en las enfermedades de los peces.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Aplicaciones&lt;/b&gt;:
&lt;br /&gt;
Tratamiento de la Hexamita (Enfermedad del agujero en la cabeza de los 
discos), el Punto Blanco, el Odinum (Enfermedad del Terciopelo), 
enfermedad del neón e Ich marino o Punto Blanco de agua salada.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Propiedades&lt;/b&gt;: 
&lt;br /&gt;
Generalmente se recomienda como antiamebeano y antiprotozoario, aunque, tiene propiedades antibacterianas.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Efectos:&lt;/b&gt; 
&lt;br /&gt;
- No produce efectos secundarios en los peces mas delicado ni en 
invertebrados por lo cual se prefiere al uso del verde de malaquita.
&lt;br /&gt;
- Se debe considerar que este medicamento puede elevar los fosfatos, lo 
cual origina la aparición de algas verdes y marrones, por lo que se 
recomienda realizar cambios de agua como se recomienda mas adelante.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Como Usarlo: &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
El Metronidazol es relativamente insoluble en agua, por lo que debemos 
asegurarnos que se disuelve completamente al añadirlo al alimento o al 
agua.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;En el Tanque: &lt;/b&gt;Un&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;comprimidos de 500 mg por cada 40 lts de agua o
 cada 10 galones americanos, en dosis regulares que deben repetirse cada
 4to día previo cambio parcial de agua del 25 al 30%. Se debe colocar 
calentador e ir aumentando la temperatura a razon de 1ºC por día hasta 
llegar a los 30ºC
&lt;br /&gt;
En el caso de aplicar en peces de agua fría como carassius áureatus, 
Koi, y albonubes; es necesario aumentar la oxigenación, dado que a estos
 peces le afecta el cambio de temperatura del agua la cual disminuye el 
grado de oxigenación por las altas temperaturas.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Baños de Inmersión: &lt;/b&gt;Por tres (3) a cinco (5) horas disolver 5 mg 
de Metronidazol por litro de agua, repitiendo este proceso una vez al 
día durante tres días consecutivos. Este tratamiento se recomienda en 
crías.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Vía oral:&lt;/b&gt; 1g de Metronidazol por cada 100 gr de comida. Se 
recomienda en el caso de Discos, goldfish Koi y peces de gran tamaño 
alternar estos tratamientos con la medicación del Tanque&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br /&gt;

Review&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;by &lt;a class="author" href="http://www.cichlidae.com/author.php?id=1"&gt;Juan Miguel Artigas Azas&lt;/a&gt;, 1996.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
The first of this anual series, intended to be and 
update on the newest cichlid information available, includes in 98 pages
 information about the biology, taxonomy, evolution, aquarium keeping 
and more on cichlids around the globe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Photographs are mostly underwater and top quality. The book is presented
 as a collection of articles by several authors, separated by groups.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=7365749460595861925" name="introduction"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Introduction&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
Fascination with cichlids has taken many aquarists to
 the point where they go and observe these wonderful fishes in the 
natural habitat. The hunger for more knowledge about the cichlids' 
behavior and distribution, and especially for more new species has led 
to the introduction of an overwhelming, many previously unknown species 
and varieties. The speed with which new species are discovered or 
re-discovered is sometimes too great to give a newcomer a chance to 
establish itself in the hobby. We, the authors of the yearbook, want to 
give a chance to those species which are new or unknown and which 
deserve a wide distribution among hobbyists. Starting with this yearbook
 every year the newest, the most important, the most interesting and, a 
least, the most beautiful cichlids will be introduced to the hobbyist. 
All (re-)introductions will be accompanied by a color picture and the 
currently known information. Such information can only be supplied by 
aquarists (or scientists) who are specialists in their fields. Many 
authors have contributed to the first edition of the cichlid yearbook. 
They will be introduced by the editor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yearbook starts with the section "Tanganyikan Cichlids". René 
Krüter, who is importer of Tanganyikan cichlids (Krüter Tropicals, 
Holland), has made several expeditions to Lake Tanganyika. He reports on
 his observations of &lt;i&gt;Benthochromis tricoti&lt;/i&gt; and some other 
species. The second section, "Malawian Cichlids" is highlighted by an 
article written by Dr. Ethelwynn Trewavas. She is the world's most 
renowned cichlid-ichthyologist and has worked for more than 60 years on 
Malawi cichlids. Photographer, diver and naturalist Mark Smith (Fountain
 Valley, California) reflects his vivid interest in cichlids in the 
various articles he has contributed to the yearbook. Peter Baasch 
(Freiburg, Germany) has bred several Malawi cichlids for the first time 
in captivity I reports on a beautiful predator from the lake. Victoria 
cichlids deserve a much better appreciation among aquarists than has 
been the case up to now. Laif DeMason, who imports the widest variety of
 cichlids from all over the world (Old World Exotic Fish, Miami, 
Florida), has made several expeditions to Lake Victoria and knows these 
fish from first hand. His contribution deals with beautiful and new 
discoveries. The cichlids of West Africa are totally different from the 
previous groups. Specialist Roland Numrich (Mimbon Aquarium, Koln, 
Germany) has made many expeditions to this part of the world and has 
caught, bred and raised many of the newer finds. His article describes 
two new species of &lt;i&gt;Chromidotilapia&lt;/i&gt;. The section "Central American
 Cichlids" starts with an excellent article by Juan Miguel Artigas Azas 
(San Luis Potosí, México), who has more than 15 years experience of the 
natural habitats of Mexican cichlids. On one of his countless 
expeditions he re-discovered &lt;i&gt;Paraneetroplus nebuliferum&lt;/i&gt;, which 
had been elusive since its original description in 1860. Willem Heijns 
(Stiphout, Netherlands) is editor of the periodical of the Dutch Cichlid
 Association has kept and bred almost every Central American cichlid. He
 has contributed several fine reports on the latest developments. The 
section "South American Cichlids" has been written by two esteemed 
specialists, Ron Bernard (Rotterdam, Netherlands) and Frank Warzel 
(Mainz, Germany). Ron has written many articles dealing with South 
American cichlids and has collected cichlids in Perú. Frank is 
super-specialized on Crenicichla and knows more about the pike cichlids 
than anybody else. Gerard Tijsseling (Gouda, Netherlands) and John 
Szwechlowicz (Holton-Le-Clay, UK) provide us with valuable tips on how 
to better enjoy and breed cichlids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yearbook ends with a literature section where a few very important 
publications, related to cichlids, are discussed. Nobody else could do 
this better than the two authors Martin Geerts (Swalmen, Netherlands) 
and Lee Finley (Pascoag, Rhode Island). Martin is the ichthyological 
conscience of the Dutch Cichlid Association and that of the American 
Cichlid Association. This team of authors provides for an authoritative 
treatment of the latest developments in the cichlid-keeping hobby&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCi8f-j0nBt2_JGhENgUkNjbrlm_oCR0hsbAVQuVV72ipdZ4EQqTrrQXv4fE_T9ovNn2GlvQwV0lOkEVH8k4KFr5dDAGDagYFd0T3FrbUmuAC24swcFoTNBQgc7t7PR9MljHgoFAuClV0/s1600/omrcjonp-1329526082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCi8f-j0nBt2_JGhENgUkNjbrlm_oCR0hsbAVQuVV72ipdZ4EQqTrrQXv4fE_T9ovNn2GlvQwV0lOkEVH8k4KFr5dDAGDagYFd0T3FrbUmuAC24swcFoTNBQgc7t7PR9MljHgoFAuClV0/s320/omrcjonp-1329526082.jpg" height="132" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
El concepto de selva, jungla o bosque lluvioso tropical, se aplica a los bosques densos con gran diversidad biológica, vegetación de hoja ancha (tipo frondosa) y, por lo general, con dosel cerrado, sotobosque biodiverso y varios "pisos", "estratos" o "niveles" de vegetación: desde árboles que pueden superar los 30 metros en los pisos altos hasta los musgos y helechos al ras del suelo, al cual difícilmente llega la luz solar (por este motivo también abundan los hongos).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Estas condiciones suelen darse en las áreas cálidas y lluviosas intertropicales de la Tierra, típicas de los climas cálidos (macrotérmicos) identificados con la letra A en la clasificación de Köppen; por tal motivo en la actualidad, cuando se habla de selva lo más usual es que se aluda a las llamadas selvas tropicales, riquísimas en biodiversidad y grandes retentoras de agua dulce, ya sea por su clima tropical húmedo merced a la sombra y al "efecto esponja" de las densas vegetaciones o ya sea por el agua misma que contiene la enorme masa vegetal de las selvas tropicales. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Una selva tropical es un bioma de la zona intertropical con vegetación exuberante, en regiones de clima isotermo con abundantes precipitaciones y con una extraordinaria biodiversidad. Hay muchas especies vegetales diferentes, pero con pocos ejemplares de cada especie en cada unidad de superficie. Este tipo de bioma se da en climas tropicales, especialmente en la franja ecuatorial, y algunas veces en las regiones subtropicales, en este último caso, en condiciones muy específicas y favorables. El nombre de selva tropical es de uso muy extendido y el nombre de selva ecuatorial es en realidad equivalente pero definido desde el punto de vista de su localización latitudinal. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Las selvas son el hábitat de 2/3 partes de toda la biodiversidad de fauna y flora del planeta. Aún quedan por descubrir millones de especies de plantas, insectos y microorganismos. Las selvas tropicales se suelen llamar "la mayor farmacia mundial" debido a la gran cantidad de medicinas naturales que provienen de ellas. Según los científicos, la cura de muchas enfermedades actuales, se conseguirá en el futuro gracias a la riqueza de sustancias químicas vegetales existentes en estos ecosistemas.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;La Amazonía Peruana&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En el Perú, la Selva y el Oriente son denominaciones locales de la Amazonia, la gran selva tropical de América del Sur. La porción de territorio que este bioma ocupa tiene un área de más de 782,8 mil km² desde las estribaciones orientales de la cordillera de los Andes hasta los límites políticos con Ecuador, Colombia, Brasil y Bolivia en el llano amazónico. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La Amazonia peruana es una de las áreas con mayor biodiversidad y endemismos del planeta, así como la región biogeográfica peruana con menor población humana. No obstante tener la menor densidad poblacional del país, es a su vez la más diversa antropológicamente. La mayor parte de etnias del país se asientan en ella y son habladas allí el grueso de las lenguas autóctonas del Perú.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;La Selva Alta&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;

La selva alta es una región natural o geográfica del Perú compuesta por los bosques lluviosos de montaña. Se sitúa en el flanco oriental de los Andes peruanos entre la Selva baja amazónica y la Sierra del Perú. Sin embargo la definición exacta de esta región varía según los usos, pudiendo ser equivalente a alguno de los siguientes conceptos. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva alta sinónimo o equivalente a la selva de montaña, según el uso popular en el Perú, utilizándose también otros términos equivalentes como Ceja de selva o simplemente la Montaña, y a veces Ceja de montaña o Monte.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva alta sinónimo de Rupa-Rupa y definido como el flanco oriental de los Andes entre los 400 y 1,000 msnm.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva alta sinónimo de Yungas y definido como el flanco oriental de los Andes entre los 1,000 y 3,600 msnm como promedio.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La Selva baja no la alta, región Omagua o Bosque tropical amazónico, es como se le conoce en el Perú a la llanura Amazónica peruana. Es una región de selva tropical de planicie que se encuentra situada por debajo de los 800 m.s.n.m., extendiendose en promedio entre los 80 m. y los 400 o 500 m.s.n.m. Esta región se encuentra conformada por la vasta llanura aluvial y biogeográficamente se le considera una selva lluviosa tropical. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
La palabra Omagua quiere decir 'región de los peces de agua salada debido a la rica fauna fluvial que se encuentra en sus caudalosos ríos. El relieve de esta zona se caracteriza por ser horizontal y cubierta de una densa vegetación, conocida como selva virgen, la cual en época de creciente de los ríos se inunda en muchas áreas. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
En esta región de la selva, los ríos a lo largo de su recorrido describen numerosas curvas formando meandros, así como muyunas o remolinos y cambiando constantemente su cauce. De otro lado los ríos son en esta zona las vías de transporte más utilizadas.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Las Ecorregiones de la Selva Peruana&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Según el WWF, la llanura amazónica peruana se encuentra clasificada en varias regiones ecológicas o ecorregiones.5 Entre ellas tenemos: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva inundable de Iquitos: También denominada Selva de Iquitos-Várzea o Bosques inundables del Amazonas. Comprende principalmente las cuencas fluviales inundables del alto Amazonas, Ucayali y Marañón, en los departamentos de Loreto, Amazonas y Ucayali.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva amazónica suroccidental: Se sitúa al este del río Ucayali, hacia la Amazonía peruana oriental y del sur (Loreto, Ucayali, Cuzco, Madre de Dios y Puno). Se extiende hacia Brasil y Bolivia.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva de Napo: Situado en Loreto, aproximadamente entre los ríos Napo, Marañón y la Selva alta. Se extiende hacia la Región Amazónica del Ecuador.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva del Ucayali: Es la selva baja al oeste del Ucayali y sur del bajo Marañón. Incluye parte de los departamentos de San Martín, Loreto, Ucayali, Huánuco y Pasco.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Selva de Solimões-Japurá: En Loreto, al norte del Amazonas y del Napo. Se extiende hacia Colombia y Brasil.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sabana del Beni: Situada especialmente en Bolivia, en el Perú se denomina sabana de palmeras y está en la zona fronteriza sur de Madre de Dios. Constituye una zona protegida denominada Santuario Nacional Pampas del Heath y se caracteriza principalmente por su ecosistema de sabana boscosa inundable de pastos altos y palmeras.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

AMAZON Underwater Photographs&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id="read" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
The underwater of Amazon is a paradise where many colorful 
tropical fish live. Amano captured such precious underwater world images
 with underwater cameras such as Contax RTS III, Nikonos V and Nikonos 
RS.&lt;/div&gt;

The Aktiengesellschaft Cologne Zoological Garden is the zoo of Cologne, Germany. It features over 7,000 animals of more than 700 species on more than 20 hectares. The internationally renowned zoo with an attached aquarium and invertebrate exhibit has an emphasis on primates such as bonobos and lemurs, and is active in preservational breeding of animals that are in danger of becoming extinct. In addition, in-the-wild conservation efforts and research focussing on animals of Madagascar, the Wallacea, and Vietnam are actively promoted and supported via cooperation with Cologne University and local projects, such as in the case of Przewalski's Horses.

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
The zoo was founded in 1860. The world wars led to a phase of stagnation, and the zoo had to close for two years entirely, after virtually being destroyed in World War II. It reopened in 1947; the aquarium was added in 1971. In 1985, the large primate house, one of the main attractions, was opened. Today, the zoo also features a free-flight rainforest hall with free-ranging birds and reptiles opened in 2000, and as the latest addition a large elephant park.&lt;br /&gt;

Dian Fossey detailed in Chapter Five of her book Gorillas in the Mist how in separate 1969 incidents, two baby gorillas were taken from their families for exhibits at the Cologne Zoological Garden, resulting in over 20 wild, endangered mountain gorillas being killed. Adult gorillas will fight to the death to protect an infant's life; therefore, to extract the infant gorillas, hired poachers killed two entire families, or troops. The zoo was able to bribe the wildlife park conservator by offering him compensation including a free trip to Germany. Fossey herself nursed the infants, Coco and Pucker, back to health, before they were seized by the park conservator and shipped to the Cologne Zoo. Coco and Pucker lived a short 10 years in captivity and then died within one month of each other at the Cologne Zoo. ossey became more determined after the incidents to combat poaching around her Karisoke Research Center&lt;/div&gt;

Underwater World Pattaya is a leisure attraction showcasing the rich variety of marine life found around the region. Situated at Pattaya, it complements the many other educational and recreational activities available at this beautiful seaside resort.&lt;/div&gt;

At Underwater World Pattaya, visitors are taken on a ๏ฟฝvoyage to the bottom of the sea' , which begins at the sandy beaches and shallow rock pools at the water๏ฟฝs edge. From here, they start their descent, passing brightly colored corals and all kinds of exotic ocean-dwellers along the way. Finally they come to a spectacular 100 meter-long tunnel with acrylic windows, home to great shoals of fish, prowling predators and a host of other creatures that inhabit the ocean depths.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Besides opening visitors๏ฟฝ eyes to the brilliance and diversity of undersea life, Underwater World Pattaya also plays an important role in education and marine conservation. School visits are actively supported, and new educational programs are constantly being developed.&lt;br /&gt;

Beijing Aquarium is a magnificent structure, shaped like a huge conch shell, and embraced by green trees and clusters of beautiful flowers. It has an advanced life support system that uses artificial salt water, weighing a total of 18,000 tons. The seven exhibition halls in the building were delicately designed to encompass seven topics with the purpose of “cultivating the people, educating students, and providing ecological protection.” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beijing Aquarium is recognized as an educational base for popular marine sciences, and also as a base for popular science education for youth. Many scientific research institutes also conduct their research into various issues regarding aquatic creatures here. The aquarium continues to contribute to the popularisation of both marine science and the protection and research into acquatic life. Beijing Aquarium has established itself at the forefront of both Beijing’s tourism industry and the advancement of scientific research and education.  &lt;/div&gt;

The Beijing Zoo is located at 137 Xizhimen Wai Dajie in Xicheng 
District, just west of the northwest corner of the 2nd Ring Road. 
Outside the zoo is a local public transit hub with Beijing Zoo Station 
on Line 4 of the Beijing Subway
 and terminals for bus routes 7, 15, 19, 102, and 103. Bus routes 27, 
105, 107, 111, 206, 209, 347, 601, 632, and 732 also stop at the zoo. &lt;/div&gt;
