I found this little guy suffering away in a LPS and simply couldnt help but buy him!

its the picture, his eyes are reddish pink. he also has the sight problems ive read about in other albino bettas. when i got him home i first put him in a 10 gal like the rest of my little guys but he kept running into the walls so i put him in a 5 gal round tank and he is much happier now that he can perpetually swim round the sides

he could just be a blind cellophane, poor guy probably is the cull of a breeder due to that. He should be just fine though, blind fish can live quite a long, healthy life; especially with a good owner :)

albinism is an absence of color pigment, and pink is a color (towards his body not his eyes). I don't believe clear counts. He could be a carrier for it though.

Even if he is just pink, that's rare(ish), too.
