Description

Paradise fish are native to East Asia, occurring in China, Taiwan, Vietnam and northern Laos. One of the oldest fish in the hobby, they reach around 8cm with striking red and blue barring and flowing fins, and as labyrinth fish they tolerate cooler water well. Males can be aggressive towards one another, so they are best kept with this in mind.

At Wirral Aquatics we feed ours EBO Pro Soft Artemia, insect meal and seafood.

Every aquarium is different. These are a guide based on water chemistry, adult size and temperament. Individual fish have their own personalities. Introduce new tank mates gradually, keep groups at the right numbers, and watch how everyone settles in. Ask our team if you'd like advice for your setup.

Ordering livestock

We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.

If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.

If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
