I have never mixed the two albinos personally and have always believed them to be noncompatible as well,(and still do) however, I do believe that I have a pair of triple hets. The eyes on this paticular speciman are dark but look to be red, not black. I don't have a magnifiing glass and it is still very small so hard to see well. I have never had any parodox albinos and have only seen the pics. I would love to see some of your p. albinos for some comparisons, I have produced three this year that look like the normal line of albinos,only with black spots. All of the p.albinos I can remember definetly looked different (in patern) to me. A good friend of mine has worked with the VPI line of P. albinos and seen many of them. His opinion is that they are very different,and that it may be the line breading of someone elses collection that is responsible for the look. The possibility of the pardox gene passing to the other albino gene wouldn't be possible,,, or would it???? I don't think it's really been tested. Most people (myself included) believe that the pardox albino is one gene, maybe it's two that go hand in hand, and the possobility of seperating the two would be possible?? Just a thought, I wouldn't even know how you could test this theary so I'm not really considering it but is this a possiblity in anyone elsed mind??
