Common Name/Names: Altum Angelfish or Atabapoa Angelfish
Zoological Nomenclature: Pterophyllum altum
Size: up to 6″ in aquarium
Swimming Level: Mid to top
Optimal Aquarium Setup: Since Altums are a tall fish, aim for something of at least 18″ or even 30″ tall. Furnish your tank with pieces of bogwood as well as plenty of plants, as these are usually left alone. Altums mix well with most placid Amazonian fishes, including Discus and small tetras, although they may look upon very small fishes as potential snacks
