🐟 Albino Tiger Oscar (Astronotus ocellatus)
Large Cichlid • Albino Color Morph • Interactive Show Fish • Freshwater Ornamental
📋 The Albino Tiger Oscar is a striking color morph of the classic Tiger Oscar, featuring a bright white to pale yellow base with bold orange patterning and the same intelligent, interactive personality Oscars are famous for.
In aquariums, it functions as a High-Impact Display Fish, best suited to large tanks with powerful filtration and open swimming space.
Oscars often recognize their keepers, respond to movement, and behave like true “pet fish” as they mature.
With stable water quality and an appropriately sized setup, it thrives as a dramatic centerpiece for large freshwater aquariums.
