Dantum Albino Gene Location

I can't tell if you are agreeing with me or not.
The only difference is the albino dantum is double dose albino,the REGULAR dantum isn't.
The regular (non albino) being het albino.Like it says on Davids site.

If he is pairing 'het' Albinos.....25% will be Albinos, 50% will be 'het', and 25% will be silver.....with that volume of shipping, he can't be just breeding Albino Dantum's.....even so, Albino Dantum's don't breed true....right?....you got silvers and 'hets' ?

All I'm saying is they're not the same thing.....they aren't..

Danziger could have his pairs set up (Albino X Het Albino) so all of the non albinos would be het albino.

I ONLY get albinos from my pair,no non albinos.

below you said....

""You asked if i got silvers from my albino dantums,yes all silvers,albino silvers.
I only have the one pair,and haven't done any crosses,so i can't say if they have any hidden genes of not.""

..so some of those could be 'hets'....

I get 100% Albino Silvers,AKA Silver Albinos,nothing else.

This is the lone fry from the cross,clearly non an albino.

one of the parents had to be 'het'....

[ghonk]

Nope,not from what the breeder said.Albino Dantum X Albino Silver.
He posted pics of both parents at TAF.
Thats why i started   the thread in the first place,that the albino gene in the dantum is possibly  in a different location.

Here's the TAF thread,this cross starts at post 55.

One parent is not an albino....imho....no mystery at all....unless there's a better pic somewhere??..

If it's not an albino what would it be,you can see the stripes on it and they don't  look dark.
The breeder also has other albinos,so i'm guessing he knows how to spot one.
He also says it's an albino dantum,so i assume that's what he bought it as.

Contrast and brightness adjusted.

Myself, I still don't see albino there....my guess?....he got a 'het' 'dantum'.....but..David's still making the $$$'s for whatever he brings in....wonder if he ever really did get that copyright finally ?....

[ghonk]

I checked online a few days ago about the trademark,only thing i found was were it looks like the trademark was DENIED  ,and than he didn't contest it within 6 month so it isn't valid.
At least that's what i made of it.

If that's the case,and it isn't trade marked,and he CAN'T get it trademarked.
You  can BET he sure  as hell is still going to claim it is on his site,and still threaten legal action like he did with me in an email.

You can say anything,show me the PROOF.
Hey David,i just trademarked Pinoy and Philippine Blue,if you don't stop selling them as that i will have my attorney  handle  it  to recover damages.
