Genetics?

I recently bought a pair of Brown Bristlenose Ancistrus, they bred in the last week. But what puzzles me is although some fry are brown the rest are albino How has this occurred? What is the true colour of this species or are they a hybrid?
There is only them in the tank

Hoplosternum thoracatum

Hi,
For the first time I've managed to spawn this species.
Questions :- when fry appear
1) do you remove them to another tank?
2) remove the parents to another tank?
3) leave parents & fry together?
Thanks.

L052

I have recently obtained some wild L052.
They are set up with all the correct parameters but I find they appear to not eat anything that is offered,eg:-algae tablets,bloodworm & cucumber.
What else can I do?
Help would be appreciated before they starve to death.
