Serial-Cichlid Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 What colour would the spots be? Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graceless Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 What colour would the spots be? Cheers Paul i was thinking the same thing! lol maybe they're just normal albino b/n, but add the name peppermint and you got yourself another $10000000 on top of the price tag! i'd be skeptical.

Shell Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Maybe they are white with black spots. That would be pretty kewl, but highly unlikely. I tend to agree with The Graceless One on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Morelia Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 If it were a true Albino, it would be yellowish white all over. But you don't very often see true Albino fish at all. Most have reduced pigmentation, not a total lack of pigment [Albino] HTH, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genie Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I think I might be the person who asked kimbo about the albino peppermint bn. I was asking about albino bn at my las when I was told about the albino peppermint bn. I am told the fish has orange spots. Lungy's opinion is that it is Ancistrus leucosticta (Gold-spot Bristlenose) and not an albino peppermint. ???? Does anyone know where I can see a picture of a gold-spot BN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absolute_vodka01 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Hi genie if i'm right it is an orange spot bristlenose. however they are very different to peppermints albino or normal. I heard wind of some a little while ago but nothing was confired. genie did you go into aqua alive on sunday? thanks adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchar Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Can I ask why you would want an albino peppermint? Surely the beauty is in the contrasting black with white spots??? merjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted August 27, 2004 Author Share Posted August 27, 2004 ive got some orange spots but the darn things wont come out of their log for a picture! if you ask Sooty on this site he had some pics of the orange spots he had got to agree with merjo the regular peppermints would look way better than albinos, if only i had some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red calico Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder if no one sees the beauty in these fishes the price would be like 50 cents each the demand and the supply hence the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shell Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 There are currently some orange spot BN at a LFS in Canberra. They are pretty cute, but nowhere near as striking as the peppermints. But would be good if you wanted something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
