Here are a couple of pictures of my Albino Red Tail - I have been told this may be the only one known of - anybody know any different?

I heard of a specimen in Europe, I assume that's the one. If not, that means there's at least one other.
There are CB heterozygotes in the US.

Yes I am.
Do you know the history of the CB hets in the US? What happened to the visual that produced them?

>>Yes I am.
A contact of mine over there informed me of this specimen.
>>Do you know the history of the CB hets in the US?
An albino specimens was imported several years ago and sold for $1000 to a private breeder. He bred it once and it died shortly thereafter, I believe. All of the heterozygotes were sold to one US breeder. I believe all of the information can be found on Google.
>>What happened to the visual that produced them?
I don't understand this question. Visual?

By visual you mean the albino that was actually expressing the trait. I guess I already managed to answer that question. It died.

I thought Ric Blair had albino Gonyosoma? I could be wrong, its been a few years since I've heard anything from him.

Ken,
Ric had the albino Gonyosoma that I mentioned. He produced hets with them but they have not been 100% absolutely proven, although everything seems to suggest they will be.
He sold all the hets.
