:\ Hey guys, the albino bristlenose, can you get them from a brood of normal ones or do the parents have to be albino to...

Albino: As I understand it the gene that "throws" an albino is recesive. Therefore, in order to produce a full brood of albino fry you would need to breed two albino parents.
But if you have two normal B/N's that both cary the recesive gene then some of the fry will be albino but most will be normal.
If you cross an albino with a normal B/N, that does not have the recesive gene, you will get all normal fry. But the fry will have the recesive gene in them.

Hope this helps to some degree.
