Freshwater Angelfish Pterophyllum Scalare Platinum Blue Angelfish

Description

Pterophyllum Scalare Platinum Blue Angelfish

Angels are a beautiful, mystical addition to any aquatic habitat. This particular freshwater angelfish is quite rare, and because of its shiny, almost metallic scales, it is often referred to as “Platinum” or “Platinum Blue”. A beautiful enhancement to any tank, these stunning angels reflect light off their scales and flowing fins, making them look extremely magnificent.

Size: Will typically grow up to 6″ in aquarium, approximate purchase size is 1.5″
pH: 5.8 – 7.0
kH: 1 – 5
Water temperature: 75 – 82 degrees Fahrenheit

Sex differentiating and breeding: These angels are particularly difficult to sex, though behavior is telling of sex; males are typically more aggressive when it comes to territory. Platinum Blue Angels’ eggs are laid in layers and usually on rocks or on surrounding plants. We suggest removing either the fry or the adult angels after newborns have hatched to eliminate risk of being eaten.

A Planted Tank will be the best thing for your fish, you’ll see! Just look at the pic, those angels are very happy!

Load your tank up with aquatic plants like Java Ferns, Crypt plugs, Jungle Val, in fact Java Ferns and Crypts dont even need to be planted, just neatly place your plants in the water and use a rock or wood to sort of, help it stay in place, and offer the roots to anchor. Roots are fairly bottom heavy so they’ll tend to always grow correctly upright. Java ferns are real easy and your angels will use those plants as refuge which will make them spawn and have a better life without stress.
