I just found a new LFS that also has a fish farm near it ( www.tropfish.com ) and sell online and they have altum angels for 9 dollars i have always wanted one and from waht i have seen online this is a good price, would it be ok in a 20 gallon for 2-3 months they are not very big yet, with 2 kuhli loaches a large gold angel and 2 boesmani rainbowfish until i get a large tank? also are there any special needs for them that i would have to do i really would like to get one, also they have excellent prices on other fish although some tanks could use work but the tank with the altums and polecos was very clean was also thinking of getting a zebra pleco for 30 from them

also- i am prolly getting a sae cause im selling my chinese algae eater whos in there now hes an agressive bugger but its a shame cause i liek him alot had him since he was like half an inch hes about 3 - 3 1/2 now

Atums are similar to other angels, although these are wild caught. Altum means "wild" in Latin. It should be quarantined for 3 weeks or so, unless the supplier can gaurantee you that they are disease free. It may be picky as to what it eats, it just depends if it has adjusted to eat it when you get it. Frozen and live foods are the best. If it eats flake food, that should be fine too.
