Title: Albino fish color?
Post by: four_by_ken on May 08, 2013, 07:13:18 AM

I never really thought about it until I saw a few pictures with compressiceps.

I have seen albino ones that were just about yellow and then others that were much closer to a white.


Just different colors, or is one a true albino and the other just a mutant?

There is variation in albino coloration.  As long as the eyes are red & without color,  then they are albino.

I never saw yellow until recently when I saw some albino compressiceps at Kees Pets.
