Koi Angelfish

Koi Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare – Koi Variant)
A stunning color morph of the freshwater angelfish with striking orange, white, and black marbling

The Koi Angelfish is a breathtaking variation of the classic angelfish, displaying a pearly white body splashed with vibrant orange and black markings, much like a koi carp. Each fish has a unique pattern, making them truly one-of-a-kind additions to aquariums. Known for their graceful swimming and semi-peaceful nature, Koi Angelfish do best in tall, well-planted tanks with gentle water flow and calm tankmates.
