I've heard that tangerine albinos are linebred. Is this true or are they really just hybinos?

Its most definately a line-bred trait just like the tangerine trait in Tang leos... Its just getting the simple recessive albino gene to grab onto the coloring of the tang line... you select well colored albino's, line breed until you get what you want in terms of coloration. I've got a tang albino and a normal tremper albino.. bred these together.. got nicely colored but normal albinos... to get more tang albinos of good quality you'd have to breed one tang albino to another...
