Albino Tiger Oscar
The Albino Tiger Oscar (Astronotus ocellatus) is a stunning variant of the popular Tiger Oscar, characterized by its pale white or cream-colored body with striking orange-red markings. Lacking dark pigmentation, this albino variation retains the bold patterns of the standard Tiger Oscar while showcasing a more vibrant contrast.
Native to the slow-moving rivers and floodplains of South America, Astronotus ocellatus is an intelligent and interactive cichlid known for its strong personality and ability to recognize its owner. These fish grow quite large, often reaching up to 12–14 inches (30–35 cm), and require a spacious aquarium with robust filtration. While generally territorial and aggressive toward smaller fish, they can coexist with similarly sized tankmates.
