The Pterophyllum sp. Essequibo red spotted Guyana is a distinct variant of freshwater angelfish, admired for its striking red spotting that contrasts against its silvery body. Originating from the Essequibo River basin in Guyana, this species brings a unique aesthetic to the aquarium.

These angelfish thrive in spacious, well-maintained aquariums with soft, acidic to neutral water conditions. They are omnivorous and benefit from a varied diet. Best kept in groups to encourage natural behaviour, they can be a captivating centrepiece in a large community setup.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Yes, you can order fish along with dry goods. However, if the dry goods are heavy or bulky, it may be more cost-effective to place two separate orders. In that case, you could ship the dry goods using a slower, more affordable shipping option.

If your order has not shipped yet, you can email us your correct shipping address, and we will update it for you.

On weekdays, if we receive your order before 2 p.m., it will be shipped out the same day. Dry goods are shipped from Monday to Friday. Orders that include livestock are only shipped from Monday to Thursday to avoid transit over the weekend.

At checkout, you can leave your request in the comments box.
