The Green Avatar Angelfish is a stunning freshwater angelfish variant with striking greenish hues overlaying the classic silver body. Elegant and graceful, it adds vertical dimension and visual interest to community aquariums while exhibiting characteristic angelfish curiosity and personality.
Native to the Amazon Basin in South America, inhabiting slow-moving rivers, flooded forests, and densely vegetated floodplains. The “Green Avatar” is a selectively bred variant for the aquarium trade.
Omnivorous. Accepts high-quality flakes, pellets, frozen foods (bloodworms, brine shrimp), and occasional live foods. A varied diet promotes optimal colouration and health.
Compatible with peaceful to moderately sized tank mates such as tetras, rasboras, corydoras, and dwarf gouramis. Avoid fin-nipping or very small fish that may be seen as prey.
Moderate. May show territorial behaviour, especially during breeding. Best kept in groups or pairs with adequate space and hiding spots.
Intermediate. Requires stable water conditions, a mature tank, and some experience with angelfish care.
Temperature: 75°F – 82°F (24°C – 28°C)
pH: 6.0 – 7.5
Hardness: 3 – 12 dGH
Notes: Provide vertical plants, driftwood, and open swimming space.
Graceful, visually striking, and moderately easy to care for, the Green Avatar Angelfish (Pterophyllum scalare) is an ideal centerpiece for South American-themed freshwater aquariums.
