Albino African Clawed Frog (Xenopus laevis)
Same fully aquatic, no-tongue, tear-it-apart-with-your-toe-claws biology as the standard African clawed frog, just running the albino color palette — pale pink-white skin and eyes with no pigment to speak of. Losing that camouflage costs it nothing in a tank with no predators, and it hasn't dulled the appetite one bit: this is still a frog that will eat anything smaller than itself given the chance. Keep tankmates sized accordingly and enjoy one of the few amphibians that never has to leave the water.
Care level: Easy · Temperament: Predatory to small tankmates · Max size: ~4-5" · Min tank: 10 gal (single) · Diet: Carnivore, sinking pellets/frozen foods
