I have 3 different types of angels in these pics.
Can you figure out what they are?

Superb shots! Nice Pterophyllum altum. The other one I believe is Pterophyllum leopoldi judging from the angle of the shot and length of the body.

Last pic shows a Pterophyllum scalare at the top left.

Thanks! I have 4 altums in there. The rest are domestic angels I purchased from the LFS. The one in the 3rd picture is a glowing blue. So that's a leopoldi?

I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was just a light trick from the camera. I've never seen P. leopoldi in blue form. Its body shape makes me think of leo but it could also be a scalare. Definitely not an altum. Where did you get that particular fish?

I obtained all my non-altums from a LFS by my house for about approx $4 at quarter size.
In the picture, that "blue" angel is about a dollar coin size. Here's another picture of him.

gorgeous shots and gorgeous angels

Hmmm...Yup. P. scalare, mate. The previous angles made him look like a leo.

Cool thanks.
The one thing I have learned in this tank, is that getting "dither" angels, like the non-altums I obtained from the LFS, really helps bring out the altums and stimute their appetite. The altums were really shy and "nervous" for a good 6-8 months that I had them. Once I introduced the domestic angels (from the LFS), the altums become voracious beasts!!!

Yup. Altums are mostly wild so expect them to be shy but when they see their "teachers", they learn another lifestyle out there.
