Marble Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare)
The Marble Angelfish is a stunning variety of the classic Angelfish, recognized for its elegant triangular body and marbled pattern, which can range from black and white to gold and silver. With its graceful movements and striking appearance, the Marble Angelfish makes a captivating centerpiece in freshwater aquariums. While relatively peaceful, it can show territorial behavior, especially during breeding, and should be kept with tankmates of similar size and temperament.
