Iām going to say it now .Iām getting an Oscar or two So keep an eye out for that tread .
oscars are oscars thereās no sub species as far as Iām aware just different colours yet some patterns are a lot more desirable and cost a lot more
Iv found black oscars , pure black no red or orange just a sliver trim around the tail fin , not too much money either in fairness along with them are some albino oscars from the same batch , looking at these albinos they are pure white again no red or orange markings not even a trim around the fin .
Iām assuming that these albinos are pure black under that pigment loss and breeding them could bring back that colour?
I canāt find any matching oscars to compare prices but for Ā£15 a black and Ā£10 a albino I think is cheap
But what is more desirable full black or full white ?
What determines the quality of an albino ? Is all white less desirable than white with markings I donāt know
