to each his own, but IMO, no angel, wild or domestic can come close to the beauty of the true Altum.
I like all three Angelfish species and each one has it's own appeal. I Agree it is diffacult to match the graceful beauty of the P. Altum, I have some Rio Inirida Altum I'm growing out that are developing very nicly and starting to put on some size but are still small 2.5" total height.
