Just a heads up, the G braziliensus group are quite different from the Amazonian geophagines (as alluded to, and shown in the video).
They come from coastal areas of southern Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, where water parameters are harder, more mineral rich, and can be seasonally cooler than those of the Amazon (I kept mine in low 70sF, and they spawned at temps around 68'F, pH 7.8, 250ppm total hardness). They can even found in brackish estuaries.
