Assorted Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) – Tank-Bred!
This species is rightfully one of the most beloved and beautiful centerpiece fish in the aquarium hobby!
The Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) is a longtime favorite of aquarists. This shoaling cichlid is relatively peaceful compared to other members of its family. It also has a very thin, tall body unlike most other cichlids. The Angelfish is indigenous to several river systems in Northern South America, but virtually all specimens in the aquarium hobby have been tank-raised for generations.

The angelfish arrived healthy and active. They swim beautifully and have settled well in my 55-gallon tank. The coloration is vibrant and they seem to enjoy each other’s company. A great addition to any freshwater setup.

I’ve had angelfish for a few months now and they’re very active and calm. They don’t stress other fish, which is a big plus. The packaging was secure and the delivery was fast.
