Albino Asian Redtail Catfish 3–4" Hemibagrus Live Freshwater Aquarium Fish

The Albino Asian Redtail Catfish (Hemibagrus sp.) is a striking and uncommon freshwater predator featuring a pale albino body, contrasting reddish tail, long barbels, and the powerful body shape characteristic of Asian redtail catfish. The fish offered in this listing is approximately 3–4 inches in size.

Although offered as a small juvenile, this is a large-growing predatory catfish that requires considerable space as it matures. A spacious aquarium with powerful filtration, excellent oxygenation, and secure decorations is essential for long-term care.

Provide caves, driftwood, smooth rocks, and adequate bottom space. A securely fitted lid is also recommended. As the fish grows, aquarium equipment and decorations should be sturdy enough to accommodate its increasing size and strength.

Albino Asian Redtail Catfish are carnivorous and readily accept quality sinking carnivore pellets, shrimp, tilapia, worms, and other appropriately sized meaty foods. A varied, nutritious diet helps support strong growth and excellent body condition.

This species can be territorial and predatory, particularly as it matures. Tankmates should be robust and appropriately sized, as smaller fish may eventually be viewed as food. Avoid overcrowding and provide adequate territories when housing it with other large fish.

Professionally packed with oxygen and insulation for transportation. Photos are representative; albino coloration, red-tail intensity, markings, and individual appearance may naturally vary.

You will receive 1 healthy Albino Asian Redtail Catfish approximately 3–4 inches in size.
