This past week I got an albino Pelvicachromis pulcher male donated by someone. She had planned to go on a vacation to Italy and there was no one who was willing to take care of her fish. She had him with some goldfish. She assumed that he was a goldfish as well. So far her knowledge about fish. The goldfish have died at her place. And this fellar was hiding in the corner of the tank.
Although, he's an albino, his eyes can turn dark from what I've noticed.But he's good looking fellar. I'll get him an albino female in two weeks. For I know a store which sells those albinos. He's now in a bigger tank on my balcony enjoying the fresh air and sun during the day.
Just made some pictures but had to put him in a smaller container to take pictures for he hides a lot. Which is normal for such a cichlid of course.
I call him Sammy...
As you can see, his eyes are almost black in two of these pics. But the picture from the top does show his red eyes. I've seen how he changes his eye color.
