Sorry about the poor quality mobile phone pics.Bought these four adorable altum angels last week and they are in quarantine tank at the moment. There were some damage to fins and tails during shipment but they are recovering quick and come to me for feed now. They spooked very easily at the beginning. Cant wait to put them in display tank with other altum angels. Any comments welcome.

Hi Scott, I bought two the first time probably around 9 months ago, I think. I thought they are hard to keep so only bought two to try. They are doing very well one grows faster thanthe oother. Please excuse the dirty glass and not the best shot of them, i just took couple of pictures for you

After four weeks in QT they have finally released to my display tank. They behave very differently in community tank. They are so much more active and love hanging around filter outlet to let water current blowing on them, very cute. Any comments welcome.
