i don't think so......i sure hope not.........both are albino......the male i bought from petco when he was 1" 1.5 years ago..........female was bought from ADA in SF5 3 months ago..........

even so...........shouldn't most of them be carrying the albino gene as parents are both albino?

Some might be brown as you don't know the lineage of the parents. The parent can carry the brown gene if one of their parents/grandparent was brown or another color.

Not all as the parents are albino but a mix of both until the brown gene is bred out, will you most likely get all albinos.

Yeah one or both might be carrying the regular bn gene. I would start leaving a slice of cucumber for food as soon as the yolk disappears. Also cover any air tubes since bn babies get everywhere and sometimes get stuck. What kind of filte you running there?
