Is there White Skin Micropeltis?

[chronick]

South, You Lost the Agreement

I have searched the Web and gathered as much Info as i need it with of course the help i was getting here.

Result: Its (Channa micropeltes) Redline Giant Snakehead (leucistic)

agreed, the second video shows a micro pattern on the body which neither the straitas or platinums have

I would say It's Micropeltes.
Doesn't quite seem white enough IMO to be leucistic, but that could change as it grows.

Its leucistic, I have 3 Snakehead and this one is # 4 in one Tank and I can see the different.

I can film them all and show it to u all if u wish

too bad you aren't in the states (given channas were legal there).. that would probably be some serious money..

Hey bro, I'm not doubting the color of it, and it may very likely be leucistic.
Just doesn't seem to have the snow whiteness of my plat polypteruses have always had.

Sometimes fish can be super pale from previous stress, white tank treatment etc.

You said yourself they were kept in awful conditions before you saved them.
Give it a month or two in a decent sized tank, with substrate and a background and then you will know for sure.

I hope it turns out to be a plat, would be awesome.

Hi tokyogasmask, I agree with u if someone have faced or heard of experience when this kind of fish got white skin because of stress, but at the same time you do have a point that lets wait one month or two and see.

You're probably talking about albinos.
Yes, there are! But they're extremely rare!
