Large Wild Orinoco Altum Angel Fish Cichlid 3″
$30.00 – $300.00
The wild Orinoco Altum Angel Fish Cichlid makes a beautiful addition to any indoor fish tank. An elegant and graceful demeanor, the Altum Angel Fish glides through the water to promote peacefulness.
Colored with a silver-colored body and dark bars, these fish also have a peculiar and distinguished pointed snout.
Beautiful and serene, the Orinoco Altum Angel Fish Cichlid has pink and silver lines throughout the tail, which extend through the dorsal fin and create a vibrancy unlike any other fish.

Hi- I felt I should let you know of my experience with the angels, cardinals and lilies. The angels and cardinals arrived, very well packaged. I appreciate the extra included cardinals, black out bags, superb packaging and included Nitrofurazone. After following the acclimation instructions the cardinals have done extremely well- active, great colors and eating well the day after acclimation. It has not been so smooth for the angels- they have not done well after acclimation, not eating, reclusive. I began the Nitrofurazone on day 2, but it hasn't helped. Unfortunately, 7 have perished, which makes me very sad. I do hope to order fish again, based on my experience with the cardinals.
The lillies- superb!!!! Beautiful and very healthy!!!! I will definitely order these again soon. In the past, when I have ordered lillies elsewhere, I might get a bulb with one to two leaves. My purchase from you was very different- both were really spectacular, and impressive!! I just wanted to let you know of my thoughts. Best regards- Richard
Haven't lost any altums since those first 3 And they are already eating freeze-dried black worms and texture color granules. The disgusts have nibbled on the freeze-dried blackworms and they are slowly eating the color granules. I will definitely send a better picture of each individual fish tomorrow when I have time to sit down and not rush. I'm very glad I decided to order from discus.com. I work at Petco in the fish department Saturdays and Sunday till close and yesterday I showed a lot of people the pictures of the fish I ordered in from you and they love them and there is a few discus geeks as customers so hopefully they'll get on your site and place some orders sometime.
Thank you so much! We appreciate your help & will be in touch for future additions to our home tank.
Cheers, Crystal

Hello Michael,
Sorry this is the only picture I can send because I’m acclimating them as of the moment.. They are doing excellent as all 6 of them are swimming upright…
I’m putting half of the antibiotic later… Then the other half tomorrow..
I’ve received a shipment of 10 Orinocos 5-7 inches last month from a supplier with 3 lying flat upon unboxing and they never recovered and died.. Shipping is very stressful to them..
Your fishes are doing excellent if you can just preview the video... anyway thank you for sharing your Altums with me.
The fishies are doing great! Thanks Michael for suggesting these Altums. Very happy with them. Very sociable and eating very well.

Ordered 10 orinico and 10 atapabo which are almost identical in appearance now don't know which one is which because they didn't tagged the bags. Atleast put an "A" for atapabo and "O' for orinoco.
They just arrived at my work, I have separated into another styrofoam box for Chris his angels. They look great. Haven't looked at the discuss yet i like the blacked out bag.
I do see a few dead cardinals so I will quarantine all those fish in a separate tank. Heading home now I will keep you posted. In my tank everyone safe and sound. Fish are amazing thank you I love them. Thank you for the follow-up talk soon.
Fish received. So far so good, thank you. They're in a temporary tank with my other sub adult Altums. I am currently setting up a 120 for just my Altums. If they make it past the first month or so I would like to get more if they are still available.
