    Is that bag I see in the tank on the right holding the tea?
    Yup Kirby, a little media bag. I place it over the bubbles to help disperse the tea. Here's a really crappy video showing them exploring the tank.

    My daughter has been gone a while Ricardo and yes I do. They are cute little buggers. The first video was not great. This one is a little better.

    A friend of mine was out at the house last Friday picking up a tank and told me he had gotten some of them from John. He was very impressed with the ones he received. Maybe one of these days I will give them a try.

    These are very nice Larry and shipped very well. They are settling nicely too. I think you would really enjoy them Larry.

    They are cute buggers Pat and like Larry...will give it another go sometime.
    I thought mine were small when I got a group 6 years back from Oliver at Below-water...these guys are tiny. I'm sure you will do wonders with them Pat as you did with the others.

    I know Pat, I didn't literally mean your kids. I meant, you no longer have very small discus/angles in the house to have to worry so much about, and then you go and get some tiny little buggers, lol. I know they are going to be great in your hands!

    Trick is preserving the fin extensions Fred then they can get really tall.

    Hi Jay, the Altums are $15 a piece plus shipping. I ordered 14 and received 16 as John adds a couple to offset any shipping losses.
