Albino Compressiceps

[LoveTheFishies]

Albino dimidiochromis compressiceps I picked up at Kee's a week ago.  It's a quick little sucker, so it took along time to get a decent shot.  Seems to be fitting in nicely with aulonacara blue neon hai reef, 3 aulonacara jacobfreibergi, 4 labidochromis hongi, and 3 Synodontis Zebra (hybrid).

60 gal cube while they are little.

I have his brother in my tank, bought it from Kee's two weeks ago.   Very cool looking fish...I like the yellowish ones more so than the whiteish ones....

The red eye looks cool with the yellow body.

Have you caught it floating around the top stalking for prey yet?  IMO that's the most interesting thing about this species

I had them snag the one with the most yellow.  They told me the yellow will be more pronounced as they get older.  Def one of my favorites so far.

Hangs out on the top quite alot.  Haven't seen any stalking yet.  Still pretty small.  2-3 inches.

It should float around at an angle , head down, watching for prey.  It's a natural feeding behavior & pretty Cool to see.

Yup !   I have (2) the Albino and a regular one, they both do that...

I did notice the angle.  Very cool looking fish.

Awesome looking fish! The yellow with red eye is nice!

This ones doing well.  Eating OK, but you can tell he doesn't see quite as well as the others.  A little slow to track on the food, but still growing.
