The traditional Hypomelanistic mutation is a dominant mutation. Salmon and Hypo are synonymous.

Anyway...
Homozygous Hypos (Supers) have the same phenotype as Heterozygous Hypos (Non-supers). This equates to a Dominant mutation.

If the mutation was co-dominant, there would not be "Possible Supers" because we could tell Homozygous Hypos from Heterozygous Hypos.
