Altum Flora Discus, Green Base
$78.00 – $190.00
If you were a child growing up dreaming about discus, this one may very well have been it. The classic Altum pattern harkens back to the striated patterns from vintage strains in the early pioneering years of the hobby. The Altum Flora Discus Green Base has the most natural eye-catching beauty. The red, greenish striped fish takes you back to the wild forests and the naturally flowing rivers where it typically inhabits. It has a welcoming appearance that seems to tone down the harsh realities of life.
The not so bright-colored fish reminds you of the joy that comes with being at peace with life and everything around you. You will look at it and get a feel of a warm sensation running through your body. If you long for a relaxing environment, then this fish is an excellent choice for your aquarium.

In my last order, I ordered 4 blue altum flora discus 3.5-4.0" and two larger 4.0-4.5" German red/turquoise blue base.
I received 2 altum floras (3.5-4.0")and 4 German blues... 2 smaller (3.5-4.0) and two larger 4.0-4.5 . I check my receipt to find the 2 altum floras were 78.00 each while the smaller German blues that substituted for the other two altum floras were listed on your site for only 44.00 each.
I paid for the 4 altum floras And the 2 larger German blues but received the lesser 2 smaller German reds instead of the two other altum floras This makes a difference of 68.00 due back to me.
From Michael: Mark, your fish were correctly matched. The smaller discus you ordered cannot yet be compared to the mature 7" specimens pictured on my website. If you want exactly what you see in the photos, you need to order adult fish. Part of the charm of ordering smaller discus is watching them grow into their final patterns and colors. Enjoy.
Michael, the Altums are in the 150 gallon tank now. They made themselves right at home. The larger of the two Altums has taken over the most desirable spot in the tank. The cave under the driftwood is his turf now. They are both eating Hikari frozen blood worms and they love frozen beef heart mixture.
I love the new Altums! They are amazing Discus and I have wanted some for quite a while. The Altums hang very close to my two large Red Melons. I removed the two trouble makers (Pair of Tiger Turqs) before adding the Altums into the tank. I also re-arranged the driftwood to take All the focus off of the new fish being introduced. All of the Discus are close in size so there is a much calmer environment in the tank. The Altums are definitely taking front and center making sure everyone sees them.
Love, love, love the fish so far! They are bigger than...More
