Description

The Manacapuru angel, also known as Red Shoulder angelfish, is a wild strain which originate from the Rio Manacapuru in Brazil. When young, the fish appears silver but starts to develop its signature red-shoulder coloration which makes this particular variety a sought after color in the Angelfish family.

We’re happy to introduce our original tank-bred Åpex Manacapuru Angel which allows us to enjoy this stunning fish without the health risks associated with wild caught animals.

For the best conditions, avoid disturbing the Manacapuru Angel’s environment once the fish are acclimated and settled (such as changing decorations or performing intense water changes frequently) to avoid stress which causes the red pigments and markings to fade. 

The elegant and graceful Angelfish (P. Scalare) is a popular tropical fish that is easy to keep given that enough space and quality water conditions are provided, making this beautiful and relaxing fish a staple choice for community tanks and large planted aquascapes. Angelfish also belong to the Cichlidae family and a distant relative of our beloved Discus fish and butterfly cichlids, sharing similar environmental and behavioral traits.Our unique Åpex Angels are disease free strains that were raised in a sterilized environment using unmatched handling methods to provide risk-free stocks, producing healthy Angels that are safe for our Discus and companion species.If your aquarium contains existing fish or plants from other sources, please take your own quarantine measures to protect our fish before introduction (click here to read our Compatibility article).
