TOPIC: my albino oscar is changing to black and orange

my albino oscar is changing to black and orange 2 years, 6 months ago #61731

I was wondering if someone could tell me why my albino oscar is changing to the same color as my black and orange oscar?It now has black on the fins and now is showing up on the body too.They get along and I had read somewhere that sometimes they will change color when they are going to breed.If any one has any advice I would greatly appreciate it.They both have great appetites and are very active.I am grateful for any reasons.Thanks

not sure how old they are.They are about 3-4 inches long.People at the fish shop weren't sure either.

They don't act like anything is wrong woth them.They play a lot together,and dance around each other.but thought it was odd.

Re:my albino oscar is changing to black and orange 2 years, 6 months ago #61743

so could it be that it's not a true albino then?
