Never seen one, but that would be SWEET! Or an Albino Clown Loach.

I've never heard of any, but albinism can occur in any species. Since datnoids aren't commercially bred, the difficulty of survival in the wild without the trademark camouflage striping of a datnoid may be the reason why we don't hear of albino dats. IMO, an albino dat wouldn't have quite the same appeal. We like dats for their stripes.

Actually - an albino datnoid WOULD have stripes - just not black ones. It would look pretty sweet.

Correct.:) I saw a pic somewhere here of a Albino Front. and it still had stripes.

I like the yello in the Dats, my favorite color. I just want to see some more pics, and i haven't heard of anyone bringing up this topic before. I know atleast one person can come up with a picture.

I've been looking for a different color variant (albino, leucistic, xanthic, melanistic, piebald, etc) dat for several years now. I haven't found a single one for sale or on display... YET

So far I've seen a dat with the "NY" as in NY Mets emblem in the stripe pattern. Had an email from someone who said he had a dat with horizontal bars for sale. I asked for a pic but, never heard from him again. Probably BS.

what color would the stripes be?

I surmise that an albino dat's stripes would probably look like the stripes on an albino tiger barb, as previously mentioned.

What do you mean by that?

Are you saying that you found a pic of a datnoid that is closest to being albino? Or do you mean that NGT in the pic is nicer than the ST that I posted?

Because I personally think that NGT is ugly...:WHOA:

Never seen one, but that would be SWEET! Or an Albino Clown Loach.

:ROFL: i wish my clown loach was albino, weve gotta get someone on mfk to breed dats so itll be a little more likely for one to be found.
