Looks like some sort of hybrid. My guess is SenegalXDelhezi. You are in Indonesia so yeah.(They breed hybrid bichirs there alot.) I say SenegalXDelhezi because headshape and color looks like Senegal. It has markings of Delhezi on its fins/tail.
This is honestly one of the first times I've been unable to distinguish a del from a sen, I feel kind of ashamed, lol. This fish has some mottling present on the pectoral fin, the finlets, and the gill plate, and I haven't ever seen quite that much on a sen. On the other hand, it's only got 9 finlets, which usually fits more into the sen range than that of dels. It also has a really strong contrast between the stomach and dorsal regions, which is something that seems to me to be more evident in dels than in sens. Based on everything I saw in both pictures, I'm leaning more towards del, but at this point anyone's guess is as good as mine. Could it be a possible hybrid? Anyone else have thoughts on a possible hybrid?

I agree, its hybrid one sen x del, many of them being mass produced here in order to make albino/platinum morph of delhezy, which at the end would look like above. I've seen the albino versions of the hybrid above, but it looks more like albino sens instead.
