Is there White Skin Micropeltis?

Yes, it is very clear that yours is a Channa micropeltes (the two black bands are still visible, stretching from the head to the very end of the tail, if you look carefully in the video) but it is not albino but leucistic, since it has black instead of reddish eyes.

I have an albino snakehead and the eyes are reddish (click icon below to view):

Albino doesn't mean that the animal or fish must be white.... depends on the species. For example, the albino burmese python has yellow patterns on its body; it is not completely white.

since you have a normal redline species , why dont take clearer pics of both and do a ray count on the albino ?

I'm not familiar with Albino, and the one i have it has different skin color than others, this is why this tiopic, but after a few months it becme clear that its Redline Snakehead because bands start become more darker plus others thing that proved to to me which species its

my experience with Micropeltes was not that much at that time this is other reason i been looking for answers.
