Ahh, yeah. I see 'em now. Nice clutch Ronnie!



At least you got one albino granite. They all look good 'n healthy, too.



If you're basing the dead one as being albino due to the lack of dark pigment (melanin), it may not be. The reason I say that is I think (but not 100% sure) that melanin shows up a little later in the lifecycle, gradually.



Last year I had a preemie that died at 5 weeks in the egg (5 wks after being laid). The melanin was visible on its sides but had just started coming in on its back. I suspect that baby of yours was 2 - 3 weeks old when it died.



Here's a few pics of the preemie I had last year.











Take it easy!
