I bought this bichir today at a local fish store and they have this labeled as "Congicus Giant Bichir". It's 10-11 inches long. Is it really a congicus? They have 2 of this on stock and they're offering me a good price on the remaining one. Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for all the input bros. I really appreciate it. Attached a couple more pics. I don't mind if it's an endi. I went to the lfs looking for one originally. The lfs owner said she doesn't have one in stock but said she do have a couple of "congi" (funny thing is, she said she can get an "endi" if I'm willing to wait a couple of weeks). Anyway, I'm thinking of getting the other specimen as well (bigger than this one but light colored with pale markings).

@Askaleymanfish - Thanks for the advice bro. I'm thinking the same thing- that they're wild caught. The lfs owner was asking for roughly $40 for both. Passed on the offer and bought this one for roughly $24. I'll go back and buy the remaining specimen. :)
