Agreed. An albino zebra. The shape is totally wrong from aulonocara and can't be albino yellow labs. Albino yellow labs are very rare and I doubt that petco supplies them.
Here is a pic just to convince you.

Does it have markings on the fins like cichlidgirl's albino peacocks?

My juvies dont have those patterns on the tail and fins etc. they have very faint see through vertical banding when juvies that pretty much disappears as the fish gets over 3-4 inches. My juvies are pale versions of the parents with a bit of pale yellow on some fins and some have eggspots on the anal fins.

Here are some pics of the couple i have left. I believe the fish in this thread is bigger than mine . Mine is not quite one inch now.

Although you are probably right, it isn't a yellow lab, I disagree with your reasoning. I found him in the "assorted african":screwy: tank, and he was the only one. I know petco doesn't supply these.

Nope, mine is 1/4 of an inch...
 
So the general opinion is that it is an albino red zebra and a 1/100 chance it is a peacock?

Thats my story and I am sticking to it :D


Im not sure anymore , if the fish is that small i suggest you wait till one or two inches then if your still not sure ask again. Fry are very hard to ID
