I would go for marble.

(Can't help it, but I am not a fan of albinos. No )

Wow pretty little bn. Looks calico to me. Would be very interesting to see the results of its spawn. I reckon cross it with a marble longfin, that way you can get some interesting patterns between the two. Smile

If it turns out to be a male then I'll just have it in a trio with alb lf female and marble lf female. If it ends up being female then I'll try it with marble lf male Smile
