The Albino Red Oscar (Astronotus ocellatus “Albino Red”) is a unique variant of the Tiger Oscar, featuring a pale white to cream body with vibrant red-orange patterns. This variety is highly sought after for its exotic appearance and interactive nature.
Albino Red Oscars are intelligent and recognize their caretakers, often displaying playful behaviors. They require large, well-filtered tanks with stable water parameters and plenty of swimming space. Due to their size and semi-aggressive nature, they are best housed with similarly sized, non-aggressive tankmates.
