The Paraiba angelfish is a stunning Fresh water variety known for its black and iridescent blue sheen and elegant, triangular body and fins. These fish require a large, tall aquarium with a minimum size of 55 gallons for adults, featuring a heavily planted environment with driftwood, a temperature of 75–84°F, and soft, acidic water (pH 6.5–7.5). A diet of flakes, krill, and bloodworms, along with regular weekly water changes, will help maintain a healthy and stable environment for this beautiful centerpiece fish.
