Hello, I recently acquired a 3 inch flowerhorn, I was told it was an albino but a whole bunch of people are are telling me it's a white flowerhorn, just curious what kind it is?and what's the difference between white and albino??

Oh lol I guess it's a good thing I asked, I payed 25$ Canadian, do golden based flowerhorns get big or stay smaller?
 
Albino would have pink eyes. Very rare! Fader for sure. Yes they get same size as normal. Fine fish!
 
That is a golden base fader. And the black spots means its molting. If you want a white flowerhorn, look for "thai silk flowerhorn" like this one12771593_521627494683125_6577394329731368749_o.jpg
 
That's a Thai silk flowerhorn... It has a greenish blue tone.. Not a white flowerhorn. By the way it's a separate breed in flowerhorn.
The low grade ones are more of blue or green. Check this video of my friend's thai silk. I still can post links, so just pm you with the link
