Anyone ever seen/heard of albino raphaels. I haven’t found anything but I imagine that would look pretty cool.

As far as I know there are none. If I'm remembering correctly, all Raphael catfish are wild caught, none are captive bred. Granted I could easily be wrong but that's what I've heard.

Both captive bred. I’m not sure if the two species are mostly sold as captive bred or wild caught but captive bred species are out there.

Nice, well that's good to know. Personally I'd say my favorite one of those 2 would be the spotted Raphael. I had one of each a year ago but I had to re-home em when their tank sprung a leak.
