I was at a LFS today and I saw a really cool looking bichir, I am not sure what it was though (doesnt help that I am not all that familiar to bichirs). It looked like a delhezi but it was white with black marking, most of the delhezi's ive seen are a tan/brown color. It also had a fairly flate wide head. I tried to take pictures but the guy who works there got upset and interrupted me.
Delhezi?

From what I have seen dels and endlis have very different markings, this one had markings that looked just like a del but it was white. I have been searching through tons of poly pictures and can't find anything that looks exactly the same. Some endlis are white?

Yeah it was pretty flat from what I remember, jaw length looked pretty equal, and the head was quite a bit wider than the rest of the body.

Lol, Those get giant, what size tank would be needed for an endli? Is it unusual for them to be white or is how they are colored when they are small or what? It was about 3". They had this in a tank that listed it as delhezi cherry, and in the tank that was labeled endli they had regular senegals. What is a good price for a delhezi and an endli?

Lol, I already stated I am new to polypterus. I plan on getting some once I move into my house, I am gonna move my african cichlids to a larger tank and I will have an empty 75. What is a good price for an endli?
endli get 18-22 inches it seems.... so use your judgement for that. I would say you need at least a 2 foot wide tank as a minimum if it were my fish. So a 150.
