A sunglow/hybino is homozygous albino (and you can get Tremper Hybinos, Bell Hybinos AND Las Vegas Hybinos) and carries the codominant hypo gene (either het or homozygous). They're also usually bred for enhanced orange colour, too.

Therefore, for best results breed to another same-strain albino or albino carrier - or a hypo-type.

double check it, i'm terrible with leos, Sami does the leos so knows a bit more about any oddments there might be.

royals or retics and i'm your man

but AFAIK hypo is dom or co dom so with two visual hypo parents i'd expect a 25% chance of a super in the mix. CBA to work out what would be het albino though, i've had beer
