Albino Pearlscale Angelfish 6-7cm

The Albino Pearlscale Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare var.) is a captivating double-mutation form combining the soft, creamy white tones of the albino gene with the distinctive raised, pearl-like scale texture of the pearlscale trait. The result is an ethereal, almost luminous fish that shimmers under aquarium lighting. At 6-7cm, these are well-grown specimens with their unique scale texture already clearly visible, making them a truly special addition to any planted or display aquarium.
