Depending on size and age i would say yes. Expect red colouring to start appearing on the body soon, along with more striations on the body.

Welcome to the forum g.c.discus.

You have a very young fish there, and the colour on all discus takes a while to appear. In some strains, full colour is not achieved till the fish is around 8 to 10 months old, so be patient. Your little guy has a lot of growing and colouring to do.

:P

As LadyRed said, that is a young fish with size and colour to develop ... although I would of personaly thought it to be a Blue Turq. With the correct care and feeding should be a very nice adult :) .... Like your little Albino too ;)

Cheers,
