HI
I was grumbling dispiritedly about the state of my great altum angel winter project to a friend of mine with whom I did bring in altums in the past. The project has has gone so poorly that my wife did mention that,using her calculations regarding the amount I spent on fish and ancillary equipment I don't ordinarily need, that those remaining fishies, got to have cost $500.00 a pop.
IN any case I lamented "where was that guy we got the altums from before ". We got them a few years ago,stuck them in a good tank and all was fine and all 24 grew up. My friend said "What do you mean, where is that guy? It was Brewmaster we got them from." So, there you go.
Suffice to say,If Brewmaster has any pearls of wisdom on aclimating these things, I am accepting all of the pearls I can get. I am fairly knowledgeable particularly now, about the required conditions. However, those critical tank conditions break down either due to plain bilological activities of the fish or tail fin rot meds. ..and I get slight but still slowly deadly ammonia spikes
Any help appreciated
