Manacapuru angels

[Krish]

Hi guys

I have a new 55 gallon tank 

I want to have manacapuru angels in that. How many should I consider

I had to look these up. They originate from black water in Manacapuru region of Amazon. They can grow almost as large as Altum angels. Personally, I’d go for a group of 6x in a 55 gal. But that may be overstocked if they’re full-grown adults.

Here is a nice video about them:

I’d want to make sure that I was getting true red-backs. For what it’s worth, I’d reach out to these folks and try to learn from them whether they’ve imported  any in.

I'm from india actually and I have already talked to a breeder.
