    Default Altum angels

    Due to a downgrade I am gonna be getting a 2x2x2 cube tank. Now I want to fill this tank with 5-10 Altums which I am going to thin out as they get bigger.
    I was just hoping to see if anyone else here have previously kept them or have any advice.

    Nope, got someone sourcing some out at the moment. I am just trying to start a set up before they actually get here.

    When properly looked after, these angels have the potential to reach large sizes(not side to side,but from dorsal fin to anal fin) therefore needing deeper lengthed setups.Low PH and GH/KH values need to be observed,and limit what other stock you can keep with them along with very high temperatures.They will be more active and attractive in larger numbers than smaller.Breeding them (if theres intentions to) is quite the challenge.Smaller tankmates(tetras,guppys etc) will be become a meal.
