Get ecology details by species (temperature, ph, etc.)

I'm trying to get information regarding a fish's natural envirornment parameters such as, temperature range, ph range, dGH or hardness, substrate etc. I have tried species by id, ecology filtered by SpecCode, and envirornment filtered by SpecCode. The ecology endpoint at least gives me some useful information about the species' diet, shoaling or schooling, etc but none of the parameters listed above. Any help would be great, thanks!

Thanks and status request

This is just what I needed and until today it worked brilliantly. So a big THANKS for doing this! The github description states 'The testing server may be available only intermittently and all endpoints are subject to change.' As I am working on a long-lived project I need to know the stability and longevity of fishbaseapi. I would think the scientific community would be keen to have this as a reliable resource.

How do I filter results by country?

I am trying to use the 'species' method and filter them by country. There does not appear to be a way to filter the results, please advise. Thanks

Can you pull pictures from Fishbase with the API?

I see that some of the available calls return jpg images in the JSON format. Is there any way to use this to display the same picture?
