yep .. no matter how you say it; hypo het albino, double het sunglow, hypo het sunglow, salmon double het albino ...

... they all mean heterozygous hypomelanistic and heterozygous albino.

Right. And if they look normal, the best they'd be would be heterozygous albino, not het (or double het) sunglow.
