The Albino Threadfin Acara (Acarichthys heckelii var.) is an elegant and peaceful South American cichlid, selectively bred for its glowing white to cream coloration, pink eyes, and long, trailing fin extensions. Retaining the graceful appearance and calm temperament of the standard Threadfin Acara, this albino variant brings a touch of ethereal beauty to well-decorated community or South American biotope aquariums.

Known for their extended fin rays and shimmering body, these cichlids do well in groups or pairs, showing mild social hierarchies without excessive aggression.
