Hey,



Actually, the post above got it right. Since there is only one strain of axanthic if you bred a snow to a paradox snow you will get anerys (axanthic) double het albino and paradox albino.



But, I dont know what happens if you have a double homozygous albino/paradox albino. You would think that it would just look like paradox albino, but since the gene to make pigment is nonfunctional in the albino (but functional in the paradox albino, thats why you have the pigmented spots) a double albino would probably just look like an albino without the spots even though it would technially also be a paradox albino. Maybe it would have some other give away to what it was. Now I am curious and want to make one!
