Light-colored Striped Polypterus ID (maybe just a weird Delhezi?)

[Cojo92]

I have a collection of grow-out Polypterus species, and a LFS just posted this guy earlier today. I can’t tell if it’s just a stunted or extra light delhezi or what exactly I’m looking at here. Anyway, I’ve owned many delhezi in the past, and this certainly looks unlike any I’ve seen.

Anyone have any ideas here?

Def a delhezi. Probably has less stripes or may change patterns with age. Nice fish nonetheless!

Thanks for the confirmation!

That’s a delhezi all day everyday, and a nice one at that, if I still had my polys I’d want him in my collection.

Welcome to the forum.

Thank you very much. I used to be really active on here until about 7 years ago. I took a hiatus from the hobby and had to set up a new account. But it’s great to be back!
