well, the albinos that I have noticed aggression in were tigers ...

so, maybe aggression runs albino tiger > tiger > albino red/red > veiltail? (I say that because I usually hear they get picked on a bit for the somewhat flowy fins )

Well I can say my O has never hurt me or had aggression towards me, only spiked and cut me once when I had to move him into his bigger tank.
But as soon as he shows aggression, or does nip then no more!!!

or he will lunge at the hand hoping to get food. Depends on the oscar really. Good luck and keep us informed on how it goes over the months
