The plats aren't pearls are they,i want some of the offspring if they throw albinos.
Do you have any other pairs throwing albinos?

Mom's a pearl, Dad is 'het' for pearl....and yes they should each carry an Albino gene.....when I pull it, I'll treat the spawn as Albino....low/no light...lower water level, etc....I even have vinegar eels for first/early feedings too... ;D.....we'll what happens.... |^|

Is that the only plat pair you have,i thought i saw one of your pics and they both looked to be non pearls.Maybe i just didn't notice it.

No other pairs throwing albinos that you know of.

The original pair didn't show the pearl...but they were both 'het' for it, so I did get some....that pair was 'het' albino too, but I never was able to spot them and separate them properly.....hence when I yank this spawn, I'll raise initially as if they were all albino....at least til I get them big enough to feed properly, etc...
