Good evening all! I recently purchased a 1.5 inch albino redtailed catfish for $8.99 Canadian (a deal perhaps) and I was looking for pics of larger ones. I Googled it and there were almost no pics of any larger than an inch or two. This is a true albino with the pink/red eyes. I don't believe it is an Asian one. Anyone out there ever owned one or have decent pics of one? Just wondering how rare or unrare these fish are especially larger specimens. I know there are the platinum or green tinted ones that are extremely rare. Please let me know anything you know about these cool fish. Thanks!
 
to me i think it could be a hybrid or someone injected it with color which isnt good at all it could survive if it was injected but more likely than not if you find out more i would like to know and possibly a picture
 
No this fish was not injected. Right now it has none of the red found in more mature redtail cats. I'll try to get a pic soon but it is still small and definitely albino.
 
I still try get some pics but after more web research I thinking there is a good chance that this is an Asian one. Kinda bummed by that. I like the South American ones better.
