how do you know if it is short body or normal?

 

[Infblue]

you can tell by looking (to put in numbers, it has to do with the pectoral-pelvic fins distance and the pelvic-anal fins distance). here are some pics (sorry im not sure where i got these from and can't properly credit the owners). also sometimes, but not always, short body ones will have some weird scale formation.

first pic (normal), the rest (short body)

Thats one chubby little Bichir. How cute.
