Completely white kaiser?

[velasco13000]

I was just curious... How common are white kaisers? I bred some kaisers but they came out normal color.. One is darker thAn usual but how common are completely white kaisers with no spots or anything? And if you guys have any show us pics

From my research it happens one out of 50 from a gene thing. Albino gene

is it going to remain completely white or will it change and get spots?? does anybody have any adults that are completely white?

I had once such a white larvae, with dark eyes. it developed a few colour spots very late but died for unknown reason before metamorphosis.

Here's another one. This is my friends kaiser. Hopefully more of these start showing up. Though someone said to me "that's kind a sad, because it won't be as pretty as the regular ones". This one seems to be retaining gills and most others from its group are dropping gills fast or have morphed.

I've never seen any adults that were albino or leucistic. I think it's safe to say your kaiser will retain it's current color or most of it. The picture I posted is a few months old.

It's sad for more reasons other than the loss of such spectacularly extravagant coloration.

does anybody here keep here any unsually colored kaisers?

I have quite a few that are white, as larvae. As they morph they get their adult coloration. Doubt any that I have will stay white. I personally have never seen a white adult.
