My albino BN Pleco is now over a year old and is growing nicely. This is a third generation Pleco from spawns in my 29 gallon tank. Of over 70 BN fry, he was the only albino BN Pleco. I have 4 BN pleco in the tank. If the Albino Pleco spawns, I am looking forward to seeing if I get more Albino plecos.

Albino is a recessive gene. If the one he spawns with carries one albino gene you should get some albinos in the batch. If not, you will get all brown ones. Good way to tell the genetics of the mate.
