I would doubt very highly that they are altums. Most likely, they are P. Scalare, which come in a variety of colors.

You never know, I've seen some crazy fish for sale recently at PetCo, like freshwater barracuda.

I work at Petsmart and theres no way we have those angels. Everything we get is standard. The ones we have are just normal ones that come in black or orangish
