Thanks but I was hoping for a bit more, I have one and it is VERY placid, so it doesn't share much with the Rainbow except it's name.

It's about 8cm ( 3" long, I've had it over a year... I have a Rainbow in another tank and it's true to character.
But the Albino is truely a lovely fish, that's why I wondered if they were different.

Try going into your search engine,you'll come up some usefull sites.I had a rainbow shark live for 8 years,they are great fish,but be careful and only one per tank unless you have a large aquarium,as they will battle.Sorry don't mean to preach,you may know their habits when it comes to two or more in the same tank.Good luck.

I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.
