    Had a similar thought... like a leucistic balloon convict cichlid.

    Exactly what I though, when I first saw it, it was in a tank with a whole bunch of chilids that were all the same colour, I immediately though it was a parrot, the LFS store assistant did not seem to no the difference at all, even though I asked, so I bought it. Lets see what it turns out to be. Going to be interesting.

    All the traits of a blood parrot, so I guess he or she will be a parrot, just an albino one.[​IMG][​IMG]
