Stunning Altum,though net yet fully grown, are they? I think they can be bigger. Interesting to see the Discus in there too. How can this lonely boy survive in a tank with angel fishes? Normally they are too calm to get enough of the food...

@davinci1999

They are very big, but maybe not giants of their species. For some reason they put this lonely discus in there. I think just for the fair...

A nice tank actually, because anglefish-species don't need so much swimming-room in the lengt, but in the hight of the tank indeed.

But i saw much bigger altums before, about 50 cm! from upper- to under-fintip in height!

We have a little educational-zoo here in Zwolle in the Netherlands, where they have a huge South-America tank(like a little swimming-pool!), in which swimm P.scalare too.

@WILLYBACOBOY

Oh i'd love to see those giants, too. Zwolle is about 200km from my hometown.

@n03lzz Hi! I think you heard about the Ecodrome in Zwolle.

In their little Amazon jungle house, they have this fishtanks, with only fish from the Amozon area.

The tank was build by the same man as my biggest tank at home, Nanne de vos from Biotopia in Arnhem.

Apropos.. Have you seen that video called:  "Amazonas in Thüringen (105.000-Liter-Aquarium)". You can find it in my favorite-list.

I have exact similar tank with angelfish in it, you just gave me an idea on how to decorate it. The plants in the background are they real or plastic? Have you used ground fertilizer for this plans if they are real? If those plants are real, do you know the names of them and where to get them?

[Philboil96]

Diskusfische müssen mindestens zu 5 in einem 500 liter aquarium gehalten  werden, bei den altum ist das das gleiche !!!

[TheDiskus24]

Der Diskus ist ein Rudel / Schwarm Fisch und sollte nicht einzeln gehalten werden !

[freuers]

This tank is a cruelty to all ALTUM ANGLEFISHES , much too small

[MrGman0909]

[saraifishtank1]

[utsuriman]

They appear to me to be pumping their gills . Esp one in middle . look like Swollen gill covers. Bacterial/ poss. parasites from wild ?
