I think this is the ultimate angelfish aquascape. These beautiful Altum angelfish are the perfect addition to this massive luxury aquarium - the stunning work of Aquarium Design Group in Houston, Texas.
What do you think? Is this the best angelfish fish aquascape you've ever seen and would you add plants? Let me know in the comments!
Keep on scaping!

@WTFlux-lh2tf 4 жыл бұрын

I must say that this could be the most stunning fish tank my eyes have ever beheld. The Altum is truly a majestic aquatic creature of the first order. Their natural coloration is certainly one of nature's finest visual freshwater signatures. The rich chocolate brown of their body's vertical striping, their heads adorned in shimmering hues of turquoise & green iridescence, all the while exotically contrasted by their bright yellow pectoral finnage and underbelly, make them one of South America's most esoteric underwater crowning jewels. Where as I was fortunate enough to keep a small school of Altums about 30 years ago, my then humble 55 gallon aquarium in which they were housed didn't begin to compare with this priceless masterpiece. Thank you!!!

Love hos friendly the fish are as they follow the movements of him. They expect food, I know, but it still makes them great pets. It's a gorgeous aquascape! Especially the backlight is a really nice touch. I think the tank does well without plants, but if something was to be added, perhaps something lean, straight, and striving upward, as that might be a nice contrast to the twirls of the branches and the roughness of the stones on the bottom.

Thank you George for sharing this setup. Ahh... a fish tank dedicated to fish. 😀 Angelfish are my number one favorite dating back to the 60's even. I really like the tank as it is! Not sure I would like to be the one vacuuming the gravel thought. 😯 If I really, really "had" to add plants I probably would add val or sag to the back corners, a sword plant off center in the middle and a bit of moss to a few of the branch tops. Definitely would keep it minimal for sure.

Really fantastic work! To many people think of nature as a peaceful, perfect paradise - it isn't! It's a rough and hard place to live, were animals have to fight for survival every day. They are threatened by predators, diseases, pollution and environmental conditions. If cared for correctly - captivety is a very good alternative! Furthermore if animals are at the brink of extinction its our responsibility to create backup populations for obvious reasons. I'm more of a reptile guy but the argument with PETA fans is the same over here. Please excuse my English, I'm not a native speaker. Greetings from Germany Moritz

This tank is simply gorgeous. I would let some algae grow on the rocks. The only plant I would consider adding would be "grass" (can't think of the plant name right now), but then they would need more light and CO2. With the tank depth and set up, plants would probably be more work than they would be worth. I've already talked myself out of plants. LOL. The tank certainly does not need them. As it is now, it reminds me of the desert. The lighting they are using is perfect.

Not sure what to think 🤔 of this aquarium. But I do know that the size is brilliant. Personally, I would create a much, much darker environment for these fish as you’ll find in most places in the Amazon. I’m sure the fish would thank you for this by showing their most beautiful colors and I suppose they’d feel saver as well. For me this aquarium looks to “clinical”. But the size.......wow
