a store here has these 6" albino clown knifes they are trying to get $45 for each. their bodys are a light yellowish color, but the spots are still black, and so are the eyes. does anyone have pictures of what an albino should look like? i know they arent regular clown knifes, but im not sure if theyre albino or something else.
 
Could be a golden CK, they are a colour morph, not albino. Reasonably common too.
 
I say Golden Clown Knives. Albinos usually don't have any spots and have red eyes.
 
isnt $45 a little much? or is that fair for a golden? the biggest one theyve got cant be over 6''. theyve had the same amount of knives for 3 weeks now

:iagree: And THAT is a gorgeous fish!
 
Albino clown knife fish will still have the spots. Albino notopterus notopterus do not have the spots.

I saw one like you describe in a fish store near me and it was going for $35.
