Platinum Veil-Tail Angelfish
Remarks: Platinum veil-tail angelfish are incredibly elegant with with their shimmering, platinum white scales and fins. They lack any markings and really stand out in a tank with their stark coloration.
Ā These fish also have the veil-tail gene which results in elegant, elongated fins. These longer fins are beautiful but can make these angels more of a target for fin-nippers so extra care should be taken when choosing tank mates.
Ā Angelfish are easy-going cichlids that do well in almost any community tank. Captive bred specimens can tolerate a wide range of pH values and are typically peaceful enough to be kept with most tetras and other peaceful South American cichlids. Due to their long ventral fins, we do not recommend keeping them with very nippy fish such as tiger barbs or zebra danios.
Ā Breeding Angelfish can often be achieved by giving them a vertical, flat surface to spawn on, such as a leaf of an Amazon Sword or a piece of slate leaning against the wall. Fry will be cared for until a few weeks after they are free swimming, though you can remove the fry or eggs and hatch them artificially if you wish. It is usually best to isolate breeding pairs in their own tank when spawning as they can become territorial.
