- Inventory changes daily depending on supplier, and stock. Subspecies listed are available routinely but cannot be guaranteed. -

Angels

  • Subspecies include but are not limited to: Albino, Assorted Veil, and Leopoldi.

  • Freshwater angels require a tank of at least 20 gallons for a single fish, with larger tanks (30+ gallons) for groups. They thrive in warm water between 76-82°F, so a heater is essential. A good filtration system maintains water quality, and regular water changes (25% weekly) prevent toxin buildup. Use a water conditioner to remove chlorine and test parameters frequently. Angelfish are social and do well in small groups but can be territorial, so tank mates should be peaceful species like tetras, gouramis, or corydoras. They need oxygen-rich, slow-moving water and benefit from live plants. Feed them a varied diet of high-quality flakes, pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods. Monitor algae growth and maintain beneficial bacteria for a stable environment. With proper care, angelfish grow into beautiful, graceful swimmers that add elegance to any freshwater aquarium!

Silver Arowna

  • Silver Arowana fish require a large tank of at least 150-250 gallons due to their size and active swimming nature. A heater is essential to maintain a stable water temperature of 75-82°F, and a strong filtration system helps manage waste and maintain clean water. Perform weekly water changes of 25-50% to control ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates. Regular water testing ensures ideal parameters. Silver Arowanas need high oxygen levels, so an air pump or surface agitation is beneficial.

    They are predatory and semi-aggressive, best kept alone or with large, non-aggressive tank mates like Stingrays, Peacock Bass, or large Catfish. They eat a varied diet, including pellets, insects, shrimp, and small fish. Avoid overcrowding and ensure a secure lid, as Arowanas are powerful jumpers. Control algae and bacteria growth with proper maintenance. With proper care, Silver Arowanas grow into stunning, long-lived fish that thrive in spacious, well-maintained aquariums!
