I have a bit of a mystery that hopefully you guys can help with!

I have a 3" Melanoid Albino that has turned pure white. He was a normal pink color last night, today after work I noticed he is pitch white! In the picture, there is another Melanoid albino, he was that same color yesterday.

Hopefully you will have some ideas? Is he sick? Should I keep him separated?

He has been living in a plastic tub with 4 other axies, all around the same size. Tap water with water conditioner. Daily feedings of frozen bloodworms, and daily 100% water changes. He is the only one who turned white, everyone else is fine! Other than the color changes he seems exactly the same, swimming and eating.

It could be just lack of movement, hopefully he'll get his color back after he eats
 
I have to say, that is really cool looking. I hope it is ok. If it is you should name it ghost. Seems fitting.
