But I so missed [i:1b6c4f58f0]you[/i:1b6c4f58f0]. :wink:

You are right however, I did get some good advice. Tank is up and running and fish are very happy.

Did you see the new pics? I have new piscene children. :D

yes, actually, i was intending to ask you about your albino red zebra. i thought that the body shape looked more like a hap, and the orange/red coloration in the fins reminds me of some sort of albino peacock. i will have to look at some pics of that fish from different angles.

Weird that you should say that...

I'm going crazy looking for him and I thought the same thing, but can't find a really good example of either a peacock or albino zebra. I thought that the albinism made the fish pure white with red eyes, like albino rabbits, for example. If the color gene is absent, as in albinism, then why does he have the orange fin?

When I look at him next to "Bruiser," my true red zebra, they look a bit similar, but the head on the albino seems all wrong. It's not rounded enough. He actually looks more like he has the same shaped head as my yellow labs.

If you find anything interesting, please let me know.

I've got a copy of Konings 1991 coming. Maybe it will help.
