Pinoy Metallic Green Angelfish.
Pterophyllum scalare.
The Angelfish, in all of its colour variants, is one of the most popular aquarium fish. It is ideally suited to larger, well planted aquariums. They are voracious eaters and will interact with their keeper to encourage feeding. Although they are generally fairly peaceful, they can become territorial, especially during breeding time.
Current Size – 4cm - 5cm
Adult Length – 15cm
Temperature Range – 23 - 29°C
pH Range – 6.0 - 7.5
Special Requirements – They prefer a taller tank, due to their body shape.
Tanks Mates and Compatibility - Generally a peaceful cichild but may squabble with its own kind, so best kept in small groups. Good community fish but may eat small fish such as tetras.
Feeding - They are not fussy feeders at all and will take any quality food offered. Care should be taken to make sure other fish in the tank get their fair share.

Please note – Some images used are library photos and will show the colour potential at a fully mature size, as our fish are juvenilles they may vary.
We always aim to supply the fish as close to the purchase size as possible. However if this is not possible, we will always contact you to discuss.
The fish are selected at random however you are welcome to make a note on the order and the fish manager will do his best for you. This is dependent on current stock at the time of your order.
