- Max Size: approx. 8–12cm
- Tank size: Minimum 150L
- Difficulty: 🟢 Easy
- Temperament: Semi-peaceful
- Best kept: Pair or small group
Is this for you?
✔️ Good if:
- You want a feature fish with bold markings.
- You have a tall, planted freshwater aquarium.
- You enjoy peaceful South American-style setups.
- You want juveniles that can grow and develop in your care.

- You have tiny nano fish that may be eaten once the Angelfish matures.
- You want a fish that stays small long term.
Why this livestock?
Zebra (Panda) Angelfish are a beautiful variety of Pterophyllum scalare, loved for their bold dark markings, elegant body shape and graceful swimming style.
At 4–5cm, these juveniles are a great size for growing out in a suitable aquarium. As they mature, their body height increases, their fins lengthen and their individual pattern becomes more defined.
They make excellent centrepiece fish for peaceful community aquariums, especially when paired with plants, driftwood and calm tank mates.
Common mistakes
- Keeping Angelfish in tanks that are too small.
- Mixing them with aggressive or fin-nipping species.
- Forgetting they grow much taller than they appear as juveniles.
- Keeping only two young fish and expecting a guaranteed pair.
- Allowing water quality or temperature to fluctuate.
Care made simple
- Temperature: 24–28°C
- pH: 6.5–7.8
- Diet: Omnivore – quality pellets, flakes, frozen foods and live foods
- Water: Clean, stable freshwater with regular water changes
- Setup: Tall aquarium with plants, driftwood and open swimming space
Pair with
- Quality Tropical Fish Pellets
- Frozen Bloodworms
- Frozen Brine Shrimp
- Amazon Sword Plants
- Driftwood & Botanicals
If you want a natural pair, start with a group of 6 juveniles and allow them to pair off as they mature. Angelfish choose their own partners, and naturally formed pairs are usually more stable.
FAQ
How big will Zebra Angelfish grow?
They can reach around 10–15cm in body size and become much taller once their fins fully develop.
Are they suitable for beginners?
Yes. They are generally hardy and easy to keep when housed in a suitably sized aquarium with stable water quality.
Can they live with other fish?
Yes. They do well with peaceful community fish that are not small enough to be eaten and do not nip fins.
Why do livestock prices sometimes change?
Unlike manufactured products, fish and shrimp continue to grow and develop over time. Their value changes as they increase in size, develop colour, or become breeding pairs.
Our prices are based on the current size, quality and availability of each specimen. While pricing often remains stable for around 3–4 months, it may be updated at any time to reflect these changes.
We always aim to offer healthy, high-quality livestock at fair and competitive prices.
Will I receive the exact fish pictured?
No. Photos are representative only. Colour, pattern and markings may vary between individual fish.
