That's what I was thinking, albino/ lutino. Albino shouldn't have any yellow.
I like this fish more. The pink eye freaks me out a bit but it has nicer body colours
hmm but lutino birds have black eyes...

I used to have lutino budgies, some had pink eyes and some had black.
yes they are albino
With ribbon guppies, the males with those elongated gonopodiums, won't be able to be used for reproduction because of the length of the gonopodium. The muscle is not able to support such a long gonopodium. And therefore it can not direct the gonopodium into a certain direction well enough. The name "swallow" has got only to do with the shape of the caudal. When you'd like to breed this strain, one should always use a regular male from that strain. In the offspring both ribbon males and males will be present. The ribbon males will be used at shows. In the glass belly guppy group I've kept, from time to time also such ribbon swallow specimens (female and male) occurred.
This typical glass belly strain is the socalled yellow taxi glass belly guppy. And all specimens of this particular strain are albino and are translucent. They're totally out of melanophores in the skin and melanin in the eyes, which makes them oculocutaneous albinos. If it were only totally lacking melanin in the eyes but does contain melanophores or other color cells in the skin, we'd be talking about ocular albinos. If we have hardly color cells in the skin with the exception of a majority of leucophores (white color cells) but sufficient melanophores (dark color cells) in the eyes, then we're dealing with a phenotype that's called leucistic.
Lutino birds have always red eyes and they need to have yellow feathering. Black eyed birds with a total yellow feathering are just yellow birds. A black eyed bird with a white feathering is just a white bird but also a leucistic bird. I've bred budgies and other birds since I was 12 up to my 27th.
