Albino x Black pair

Why is it that I never see anyone talking about this combination ?

Is it not a good combination to work with ?

I noticed this morning that I have this exact pair that spawned in one of my 100 gallon tanks so I put them in a 29gal tank with the eggs to see what would happen. I do not think they will hatch because of my very hard water. So I cleaned out the tank and filled it 25% full and turned on my R.O System to drip the softer water in over the next 12 hours to fill it.

The pair is an Albino PB not a Dantum like I thought and a Black but not sure if it is one of my DD Blacks or one of the others has has the gold gene.

It is an odd combo for sure........all the fry will be 'het' for albino tho....possibly some folks shy away because of the black/albino presence.....both can be a challenge at times to get surviving fry...??

I believe that albino should block the black too...??....
