Hey Hey,
I have a couple of Albino Krib that share a tank with a couple of standard Krib, the standard ones are getting along pretty well and kind of X-Rating my tank to be honest.

The Albinos are somewhat stranger, they have remained the same size since I bought them (about 2cm) in the same time the 'norms' have almost doubled.

They don't hide in the provided caves, they just swim about the front and kind of shoal or at least hang around with the albino clawed frogs quite often sitting on them and resting but the frogs don't seem to mind (I know this isn't a lasting friendship, the frogs will be rehoused when they become larger).

One of the Albino's is gaining pigment she now has a red tint to her belly and the yellow stripe and head and orange top fin. The male is still totally white but has off days about once a month when I'm always certain that he is gonna die (and so are the kuli loaches who start to poke at him) he lies on his side looking very sorry for himself. but the next day he will be fine.

Also the Albino's hate each other and always stay at opposite ends of the tank. although don't actually hurt each other.

Whats with the difference in behaviours?
