novafishy Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Are these available? albino E.Y if so, how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViS Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I haven't seen them here. I've seen some dodgy looking things referred to as "white" electric yellows though Not sure why anyone would want albino yellows though The yellow in them is what makes them attractive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksta Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I take it you didn't check the picture Andy? There are people line-breeding for fish with no black in the fins etc, so that they look like that. The only difference being they don't have the red eye. There are definately some getting around Perth with good yellow and little/no black. Most of the ones I have seen locally have bad colour. Personally I think the black fins set the yellows off. Otherwise I'd keep a tank of salousi females Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeyBoyR Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Very pretty fish, I like the patterning in the fins aswell. The slight blue tinge is very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViS Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 No haven't seen the pic as cichlid-forum is blocked by the work firewall I can only imagine what it looks like. I'll review my opinion once I've seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ged Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 A very interesting looking fish. When I first read the topic I thought that it may be referring to Labidochromis caeruleus "Kaiser Point" which is white. Looking at the photo though brings back memories of my Budgerigar breeding days and the term "Lutino" which were yellow birds with red eyes.

ViS Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Yep nice looking fish. I was expecting a pink fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couchy Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 That fish looks great and unfortunately i haven't seen any around. But if you take a look at "Malawaicichlids.com" and click on the Mbuna icon then scroll through the photos index, theres pictures of the 4 varietys found by Ad Konongs. Theres the usual yellow, a white, a blue with black barring and a dull yellow/white with blue anal fin. There really worth a look.

absolute_vodka01 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I was at a fish store in brisbane 2 weeks ago when my mate got 6 albino yellows. I'm not sure if they are what he said they are. Will have to wait till they grow and have another look at them. They were $20ea at 4cm Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchar Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 What do you reckon? I reckon they look a lot like some fish that were getting around over here a while ago. There was an LFS here selling them as "albino Caereleus" Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novafishy Posted May 22, 2005 Author Share Posted May 22, 2005 can u post a larger version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchar Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Actually now that I look at them again, they seem deeper in the body than the ones that were here..maybe just the angle? I agree with Nova - have you got a larger pic.? Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E4G13M4N Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Although a better pic is needed the pic posted by Frenchy look like Aul. maylandia to me. Also known as the pinkowski peacock by some. I also wouldnt be surprised if these have been crossed with EY by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herefishiefishie Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Yeah i'll take a bigger pic. Just I was running out of room on memory card so reduced size of pics. Heres my favourite. Frenchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
