It's also called leucism when they have the white skin/blue eyes although Webster claims the word doesn't exist.

An albino turtle...how cool is that? The shell pattern looks awesome.

Is it just me or are others spooked by the cherry red eyes of alot of albinos? I even had an albino hamster and while she was a snuggle bunny, those eyes! I mean it's bad enough when my cats' eyes glow green! Red??? (I hear either XFiles, Twilight Zone or Dr. Who theme here)

Um aquatic albinos...does an albino horse that loves to swim count? Just ignore me.

Dangerous Dan I LOVE that idea of getting a "great white shark". Now I'm going to be on the lookout for an albino shark just so I can use that line! "Guess what I have in my tank?"

General Question: Do albinos seem to be as healthy as regular coloured species? I read somewhere they aren't. Your experience? (of course I'm not counting deep sea colourless fish or blind cave fish in this, I mean species were albino-ism crops out.)

The only problem albino I've heard of is male albino kribs;
they seem very suceptable to a cancerous growth in the mouth.

I know with budgies you shouldnt breed 2 albinos or Lutinos and albino as the results are usually blind and of bad health. Whether this rule applys with fish i have no idea, i would think it would. I think that because I can......

Albino cats are almost always deaf too.

Back to fish though.. does anyone have a picture of an albino Senegal Bichir?

What I really want to see is an albino puffer, that or a puffer in flourescent colors, wich is possible as alot of genetic research happens in puffers. But I digress.
