Here's a video of Cracker, my albino catfish with the drone of my truck in the background audio.



I don't know much about catfish or ponds so I bought both.

Is this guy cool or common? I don't care. We like him.

They are rare, but not extremely rare. Albino or piebald animals are rarer in nature due to lack of camouflage, but eliminate predators and they are just a neat curiosity. Unless, of course, it's a harbinger of the apocalypse. In that case it would be bad. Very bad.
 
Not looking good. I think this might be the end. Wait! Is that a tiny ad?
