CORAL ALBINO EYE VS. NORMAL ALBINO EYE hmmmmm pics>>>>

STUART May 15, 2003 06:59 PM

I just noticed the other day I could be compeletly off my rocker though lol. I have two coral albinos and they both have WAY more PURPLE pigments in the eye than do the normal albinos. Has anyone else noticed this or am I crazy? Normal albino eyes are very red. However the corals have lots of purple speckling throughout. Im also wondering how the heck people are telling coral babies from normal albino babies? I have kept back quite a few albinos from my clutches and have had some turn coral however I would not really have guessed which would have turned coral I know Ive sold corals for normal albino prices I cant pick them out. However at about 3-6 months of age or so I have a pretty good idea. So how do you know normal albinos from corals as babies? here are the pictures. I had to get the corals picture pretty dark to see all the purple pigment but its QUITE obvious

ok and here is a more "normal" looking albino shes still HOT though lol

Those are nice pics! Sorry, I've never seen a coral in
person so I can't add much to your question, but my
adult albino's eye (kahl strain) is very light, white and pink
with a dark red iris. (no purple)
