Albino Heckelii/Albino/Threadfin Acara (Acarichthys heckelii “Albino”)
The Albino Heckelii is a rare and stunning variant of the classic Threadfin Acara, prized for its pearly white body, flowing fins, and bright red eyes. Native to the Amazon and Orinoco river systems, this peaceful South American cichlid makes a unique and elegant addition to medium to large aquariums. Known for its graceful movement and gentle temperament, the Albino Heckelii does well in community setups with similarly sized, non-aggressive tank mates. It thrives in soft, slightly acidic water with plenty of open swimming space and hiding spots. A perfect choice for aquarists seeking beauty and tranquility in one fish.
