I'm buying an albino bichir, and the petstore don't know what sp is. They say it's a senegalus! I want to know if there is some diferences between the spp (fins, jaws, scales)

Unless you are paying hundreds of dollars its the albino form of Polpyterus senegalus-Anne

One caveat (warning) make sure it has red eyes otherwise it could just be a very pale regular senegalus
