TSN albino (?)

[kwstas_original]

This is the case...

Some years ago i brought a TSN juv and started growing him up till become a monster and can live with my other big fish.
As he was growing becoming an amazing and beautiful fish...in the following pics you can see the progress:



In the last pic as you can see he become into an albino TSN!!
Anyone has a logical explanation about that?!
First thing was to check water parameters, all good, as since i remember anything wrong in the water was always shows effect in his colouration....but this?!?

Loss of pigment...hmmm that's interesting. I don't have an explanation for it but I have heard of it happening with other fish and also in animals. Cool looking TEN though!

Can't xanthic fish become so after some time? Be normal for a long time then reveal the yellow/white color?
