your looking at a huge variance in price. Basically it is going to come down to the grade of the hypo(looks) as well as the striped albino lineage it came from. Sliding scale looking between 12-1800 for a male, again depending on grade.

Now the question is whether or not that is what you want to breed to your salmon female? The reason I say this is that you'll end up with Poss Dominant F2 salmons that are 50% het albino and 50% het stripe. Though they'll be nice, when it comes to resale value they are not the most desirable animals due in part to their possible het. status.

Just a thought. You may want to look into something in the pattern relm get a striped albino so that all of the resulting offspring will be 100% hets and you would be able to produce your own triple hets.

I agree with Justin .Breed her to an albino or better yet a sunglow(if you have alot of cash).
