Hi Albinoeupterus,
Welcome to PlanetCatfish!
About your fish, to me it looks more piebald than albino.
Cheers, Eric

Re: "albino" eupterus
It seems they have just appeared on the Predatory Fins list some months ago? And under the name cited in the OP.

Re: "albino" eupterus
I know the thread's gone a bit cold, but this looks a more like LLD to me than anything else.

Re: "albino" eupterus
Lateral line depigmentation would run along the lateral line wouldn't it? This seems too random to be that and looks like a piebald mutation. But I'm not catfish expert.
It certainly isn't an albino with the eye pigmentation the picture shows.

Re: "albino" eupterus
Funny that they are suddenly showing up, and in the US first it seems, I saw two specimens this weekend at the OCA Extravaganza. And even though I am normally not into this colouration and especially not in man made forms, they can look rather stunning really. I will upload photos later to compare, the two were very different to each other.
