albino cichlids?

[phantomfe3]

there are 3 of these at one of the local fish stores, im pretty sure they are albino because they are ALL white, completely white, and in the middle of their eye has a red/orangish tint to it. are these rare? i thought they looked pretty cool because of all of the other cichlids ive seen had multiple colors (well.. most ) and i kinda like the looks of a solid color cichlid, just thought this was interesting.,.

Rare as in.........a priceless fish that rarely shows up......no.

Rare as in havn't seen those that much but don't see them all the time. Yes. I would say so.

They were prob. Albino Mbunas (mixed african tank).

it could very well be a snow white socofi, i have one it and a blue socofi have breed 3 times now. great fish..not sure if the ones u have at ur lfs is like mine but he is awesome looking cause he doesnt have that off white color like a albino. she is snow white

I got a few of these but they always get killed by my other africans, I guess they are not as aggressive.

i would guess albino zebra, we have more of these then any other fish at my work, very common atleast around here in pet stores
