Hi Sandy, Also here in my local belgian aquariumshop I often see albino forms. To my personal opinion no albino ever meets the beauty of the wildtype species. And I wonder if these individuals would make a good chance of surviving in the wild. As a real fish lover, I think you should just try to get the fish so healthy and happy that they show themselves to you in their natural, wonderfull colours and behavior.
