October 2006.

Sixteen little wild caught altums are put in a 250 lt heavily planted tank with 100 neons for company. Water is very soft with a pH of 5.5 and tea coloured from the driftwood and peat moss.

When I got the altums, I estimate they were probably three months old, now, ten months later they have grown into strong healthy fish.

Now they're ready to go into their new ten foot home, where I anticipate they will have a real growth spurt.

Absolutely beautiful fish Merrilyn ... a true credit to you.

Still one of my all time favourite FW fish, I think they will be more than happy when they get into the 10fter :wink: Would love to see some pics when they get to their new home.

Keep up the great work with these guys ... awesome stuff !
