Albino Clown Loach?

[MidSSouth]

At my local PetCo they have a clown loach that I have been watching for the last two weeks or so. It is fairly large but instead of orange with black stripes it is a pale, almost white, with faded stripes. Could this be an albino or is it likely just sick?

It's either sick or stressed.

clown loaches will 'grey out' when they are stressed, this is probably what happening, an albino clown loach would be cool though.

Never heard of an albino clown. It was probably sick or stressed.

More than likely it's stress.
