Bulgarian seal point Angelfish

Rare, sophisticated, and strikingly beautiful — the Bulgarian Seal Point Angelfish is a premium fancy angelfish variety from Bulgaria, prized for its distinctive seal point colouration — a pale, pearlescent body with darker, contrasting colour concentrated at the tips of the fins and extremities, similar to the seal point pattern seen in Siamese cats. A true collector’s fish that brings refined elegance to any large aquarium.

Overview

Appearance

The Bulgarian Seal Point Angelfish displays a pale, pearlescent to silver-white body with darker colouration concentrated at the fin tips, face, and extremities — the classic “seal point” pattern. The contrast between the pale body and the darker points creates a sophisticated, elegant appearance that is quite unlike any other angelfish variety. Bulgarian-bred angelfish are renowned worldwide for their exceptional quality, robust health, and refined colouration.

Compatibility & Tank Mates

Best kept with similarly sized, peaceful fish. Good tank mates include larger tetras, Corydoras, gouramis, and peaceful cichlids. Avoid very small fish and aggressive fin-nippers.

Angelfish are open spawners and breed readily in captivity. Pairs form strong bonds and spawn on broad plant leaves or flat surfaces. Eggs hatch in 48–60 hours and fry become free-swimming within a week.
