    White Albino Pearl

    Hi all

    I got a bit carried away with the pictures, so sorry it might be a bit repetitive.

    Don't know how I missed this when I was picking him out of the bunch, but it looks like one of his pelvic fins maybe suffered damage in the past as it is shorter than the other one, but abruptly so, as if by damage rather than by uneven natural growth. Does this fin repair itself?

    One of my stunted alenquer discus will keep him company in his QT.






















    Hope you like him

    Awsome fish - for some reason i LOVE Albino's - dont have any - want a few - but still ... dont have any

    Regarding the fin - yes it should grow back over time if it was some sort of attack - some people might say to us Melafix - i wouldn't as you dont know if its an attack or an abnormality.

    Time will tell.

    I am a sucker for albinos. I have room for 1 more fish and it will be an albino, I just haven't come across one that is stunning like any of those. Robyn that fish is beautiful.

    Thanks to all of you for such nice comments about my new little guy. I was so happy with him, I posted his pic on a couple of forums and, so far, I've only received one negative comment about him.

    What was that comment - just out of curiosity - if you don't mind me asking?

    I think I see the comment on the other forum, I wouldn't bother with it. Some people just like to nit-pick with other people's fish making them doubt what they see or have.
    It is a lovely fish Robyn, still young, lots of time to grow in your care. I would leave it alone for now.
