🐟 Albino Marbled Lungfish – (Protopterus aethiopicus) – Rare Albino African Lungfish for Sale

The Albino Marbled Lungfish (Protopterus aethiopicus) is a stunning albino variation of the African lungfish, displaying a creamy-white to golden body with delicate pink undertones and striking red eyes. Like its wild-colored counterpart, this prehistoric fish can breathe air, survive in oxygen-poor water, and even aestivate (hibernate) in mud during dry seasons. Its combination of rarity, intelligence, and massive adult size makes it a highly prized species for advanced aquarists and monster fish enthusiasts.
