Some use Tangerine Hybino and Sunglow are used interchangeably. Tangerine Albino would infer that it has a banded pattern.

a sunglow or hybino means that hypos (shtct) were bred to albinos, to create them.
Tangerine albinos are normal banded albinos at birth, but they have more than the average amount of pigment that slowly covers up the banding as the gecko grows up--the most extreme look identical to sunglows/hyglos! *these have no hypo lineage, and occaisionaly 'occur' when breeding normal albinos

Hypo lineage . . . does this mean parents have only a very few spots? Or is this a special line in and of itself?
Is hypo a line-bred trait? If I am understanding it correctly, my tangerine is just outside the hypo description.
One day, I would like to cross her with my albino, really just for the fun of taking care of the little ones and watching them grow. I know that they won't be anything amazing; just very cute rapidly changing normal to tang het albinos.
But maybe some of her babies could end up being hypos. If I crossed them together, I might get a sunglow or something similar? That would be cool. I love all the bright tang type morphs!
