Paradise Blue

The Blue Paradise Fish (Macropodus opercularis var.) is a beautiful variation of the classic Paradise Fish, showcasing a vivid blue sheen across its body and flowing fins, sometimes with red highlights for extra contrast. Hardy and eye-catching, it retains the labyrinth organ, enabling it to breathe air from the surface. Semi-aggressive, especially among males, this variety is best kept in species tanks or with suitable community companions that can handle its lively temperament.

Fish Size Guide:

The 'Maximum Size' outlined below is the length this fish can reach as a full grown adult. For the actual size please use the select menu above.

Discus.ae prefers younger stock for their better ability to adapt to new water parameters and higher tolerance against transport. On rare occasions you may receive larger specimens when small fish are unavailable, however the smallest should be expected unless the size is noted as "Large" or "Adult".
