A friend on facebook just posted this 320kg monster he caught and hand-pulled in the Cook Islands I don’t have all the details of the catch but I thought you would still appreciate the picture.
Betta Fish: So obviously we strive to get our fish’s good sides. Let’s be real though, 98% of the time our photos look like this. Anyone else suffering tonight?
Both of his eyes are red, and he’s blind.. (in a temporary tank atm- moving) https://i.redd.it/yffm9mlybqjd1.jpeg Posted by oSanguine

AutumnFalls89 on August 20, 2024 3:02 am I’ve seen cellophane betta’s but never a albino Betta. But his eye does look red which is a sign of albinism.
SwimBladderDisease on August 20, 2024 3:06 am I’d say cellophane but due to his red eyes and blindness (the genes that control color also control parts of sight) I’d say he’s definitely albino.

I’m by no means an expert but he looks like it!

I want to say yes due to the color of the eyes

Most albinos have shitty eye sight so my bet is yes
