Description
The Bulgarian Blue is a highly sought-after variety of Pterophyllum scalare, prized for its stunning iridescent blue scaling that shimmers across the body and fins under aquarium lighting. Selectively line-bred for its distinctive metallic blue coloration, bold black contrast markings, and elegantly long flowing fins — making it a breathtaking centerpiece in any freshwater aquarium. Like all angelfish, they are cichlids and may display mild aggression, especially as they mature, but they thrive best in groups of five or more.
Why Choose the Bulgarian Blue Angelfish?
- Rare & Unique Coloration – Features vivid iridescent blue scaling with striking black contrast markings.
- Premium Line-Bred – Selectively bred for superior color, fin development, and overall health.
- Cichlid Nature – Generally peaceful with community fish but may become territorial, especially during breeding.
- Ideal for Tall Aquariums – Thrives in spacious, planted tanks with plenty of vertical swimming space.
- Water Quality Sensitivity – Requires stable water conditions and routine maintenance to remain healthy.
Important Care Tips:
- Aquarium Size: Best kept in a tall, planted aquarium with ample open swimming space.
- Aggression: More comfortable in groups of five or more to reduce territorial disputes.
- Water Care: Sensitive to fluctuations — maintain stable conditions with regular water changes.

"What You See is What You Get" collection?
With our "What You See is What You Get" collection, you can view the exact fish you'll be receiving. Each fish is photographed individually, so you know exactly what you're purchasing before it arrives at your door.
Do you offer a live arrival guarantee?
Yes! We offer a 100% live arrival guarantee. Our fish are shipped directly from our collections with care, and we stand behind their quality. If your fish arrive in poor condition, please contact us within 24 hours with a photo, and we’ll provide a replacement or refund, as per our terms and conditions.
What is the Direct from Farm collection?
The Direct from Farm collection is our preorder system where you can select fish directly from our farm in Thailand. Because we carefully source each fish, this process takes a little longer—approximately 2 weeks for the fish to arrive from Thailand and another week for quarantine before being shipped to you. This ensures that your fish are healthy and acclimated before they reach your aquarium.
How do I care for my new fish once they arrive?
When your fish arrive, it’s important to acclimate them gradually to your tank’s water temperature. Ensure your aquarium is fully cycled and that water parameters (temperature, pH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels) are stable. If you need any tips on setting up your tank or caring for your fish, feel free to reach out!
