Comments: Albino Socolofi also known as Snow White Socolofi are a great color (or lack of) addition to any mbuna aquarium. It is weakly territorial in the aquarium. It is one of the easier mbuna species to keep for a beginner. In the wild, it picks its food from short algae strands attached to the rocks in the intermediate habitat.
