::Are you having problems feeding your albino res?

::Mine eats perfectly fine. He can even catch live fish on his own. I got my male albino from Turtletown last year so he's about a year old maybe a little older. The female I'm getting is from Don Hamper...she's about a year old too but larger than the male by an inch...

:Its really not trouble feeding him b/c he sits on my hand under water and as I said he's blind so he cant even see fish. haha I dont mind hand feeding him, Have you ever heard of albino's being blind? Do you let yours bask under regular full spectrum lighting UVB and all? I do.
:

I've heard of some being blind before...mine had a hard time eating for the first two months but he's fine now. I keep mine under UVA/UVB lights and he has no problems....He usually falls asleep basking....:P
