Hi,

Would like your opinions on this one...

A month ago I bought ten of these juvenile angels. I was told that they were Altums imported from Aquarium Glaser in Germany.

Showed the photos to Heiko Bleher and his reply was:

'Heiko Bleher have nothing to do with P. altum. These are P. scalare from the lower Amazon basin, once called P. eimeckei'

What do you guys think?

They are scalare but I would say they aren't even wild or F1.Too many bars
 
Just a short update. I have in the meantime contacted the local shop were I bought these fish from and they now state that they are Peruvian Altums! I have explained that there is no such thing as Peruvian Altums however I got nowhere. I have been sending emails to Aquarium Glaser nearly on a daily basis since Monday requesting clarification however they are simply ignoring these mails.
