Re: is hypo the same as salmon?

All salmons are hypos, but not all hypos are salmons, in the same way that all rectangles are squares, but not all squares are rectangles.

ETA: Or that all pirates are sailors, but not all sailors are pirates. My man insisted I offer that comparison as well. He says it's better than mine. lol

Re: is hypo the same as salmon?

Salmons and Hypos are all the same gene. just 2 different lines. kinda like saying in leopard geckos.. you have bell line and tremper line. they are both albinos no matter how you cut it.

Don't you mean all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares?

Sorry, I'm an engineer, and thus a huge dork, and I'm being OCD about it :P

Re: is hypo the same as salmon?

Re: is hypo the same as salmon?

LOL thanks for the replies so lets say someone puts a hypo and a salmon in front of me, side by side so i can look at them. how would i be able to tell the difference? what are characteristics of both salmons and hypos?

Re: is hypo the same as salmon?

That I can't tell ya. And actually, I'd very much like to see photo comparisons. Anyone out there going to enlighten us further?
