Any TRUE albino Cichlids, other than Oscars, etc ?

Forget the pink convicts, gold dempseys, lutino oscars, gold jags, etc.

Are there any really rare morphs that nobody has heard of - such as albino salvini, albino firemouth, albino Mayan, etc etc? I am VERY surprised they have not popped up with so many generations being bred thus far.

Many africans have albino versions of themselves.

But yes you're right not a lot of americans do. In fact besides oscars I don't think I've even seen one actually.

I was going to say the same thing. Lots of African albinos, but I can't remember a new world one.

If not albino then what are 'Pink Convicts'?

 

[Azedenkae]

Pink Convicts are leucistic.

Oscars, discus, and angels are the only ones I can ever recall seeing from SA.

Pink Convicts are leucistic.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I have a couple and thought they were albino. It explains the paradox convicts as it is not uncommon among other leucistic animals.
