{"product_id":"fish-angel-platinum","title":"Platinum Angelfish (Large) | Pterophyllum scalare","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOverview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Platinum Angelfish is a selectively bred silver-white form of the South American freshwater angelfish. Its tall body and trailing fins need an aquarium planned for adult dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBehaviour\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdults can reach 15 cm body length and over 20 cm overall height. Pairs become territorial; several juveniles may stop tolerating one another as they mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTank Size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur recommended minimum is 200 litres, approximately 100 × 40 × 50 cm, for a single adult or compatible pair. Provide at least 50 cm tank height. Groups need a considerably larger aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose peaceful fish too large to be swallowed. Small neon-sized tetras, fry and dwarf shrimp may be eaten. Avoid Tiger Barbs and other fin-nippers; provide separation if a pair persistently bullies tankmates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeed quality cichlid granules or flakes, supplemented with frozen Artemia and bloodworm. Offer modest portions and check that timid tankmates receive food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaintain 25–28°C, pH 6.0–7.4 and approximately 3–15 dGH. Use tall plants and wood to break sightlines, with open swimming space and gentle flow. Test ammonia and nitrite at zero; change 25–30% weekly. Large is a sales grade, not the eventual adult size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLive Animals Are Click and Collect Only.\u003c\/strong\u003e Order online for collection at Newlands Home \u0026amp; Garden Centre, Clondalkin.
