Literally no one here is bashing. If you think bashing has happened then you’re sadly mistaken.
Key board warriors? That honestly is laughable.
Sounds like marketing hype in trying to make a truly non-albino animal more expensive than it really is.
Ive seen the ones refered to as albino but with black eyes. That had me thinking normally theyd call that a platinum or leucistic and that is more rare then albino. But no they have those too, so I dont get it.
Not to flame on you,
Albino Silver Arowana refers to white colour It does not refer to the eye colour, most albinos are black eyed, in the hobby like most in the US, very rarely do you see true redeyes most small 3-4inch aro have red eyes but then when they are bigger they lose there redeyes, so ALBINO is white body, not platinum not leustic, it just refers to it having a white body
Not trying to start a fight or anything but can you provide some references to back up what you say?
What I’m saying is for as long as I’ve been alive I’ve known the term albino to mean one with red eyes( or pink). What you are saying is in direct opposition of what I know. Therefore I am asking you, maker of the claim, to please provide evidence to prove your claim is correct.
If you do not wish to then that is fine as well.

Yes, I agree albino means the white body or light pigment, with red or pink eyes, not in the case in the term of albino silver Arowana.
I am simply trying to explain that this is the occurrence in the fish trade, I agree with you, but the term giving for all white body silver Arowana no matter the eye colour is Albino, not platinum, not leeustic, etc.
