really? my hubbies albino dwarf frogs don't have red eyes
I see my little guy/gal and I don't think it has red eyes, so what in the world is this fish?

Try this link for more identification. If the eyes are not red, chances are that could be a leucistic morph.

seeing as how he is lacking spots, I'm inclined to agree with the others, its probably an albino bristlenoser.

It could also be amelanistic.....albino with dark regular eyes.

It's not an albino bristlenose, it's some kind of Chaestostoma, just impossible to say what kind from the picture. Stress can make them lose color. Better pictures, if it lives, should help.

mmm, good point. My BN was real light when I got him, now he is about solid black with a few spots here and there.

He/she is getting better, it's a darker color now. it's amazing what could happen overnight:

I guess I have a better water condition then the petstore! Thanks all!

that's typically the case, fish often color up quite a bit once they get established in one of our tanks.

I had one of those plecos before. He always hid unless it was feeding time, so you might want to put something near the front of the glass for him to "hide" behind and you can still see him.

I have never in all my life seen or heard about an albino African Dwarf Frog, chances are, he is an albino African Clawed Frog that get to be about 5 inches big, need at least a 30 gallon tank, and will devour anything it can fit in its mouth.

Look at its front feet, if it has webbing, it is a light colored African Dwarf Frog. If the front feet don't have webbing, it is a light colored African Clawed Frog. Either way, they aren't albino, they are just light colored because they don't have red eyes.
