Polypterus ID?

[Valheru]

Hi guys, are any of you able to ID these two Polypterus I have? I think ones an Endli and one is a Lap, but wanted to make sure. Sorry about the glare, I don't have any lights at the moment.

Top left looks like a Endlicheri.
Top right possibly a Congicus but not sure.

Think it’s an Endli and Lapradei as well, counting 14-15 finlets

One sure is endli, other one look like a ansorgii.
I kinda see a check board marking but wait till it settles in. But can also be a lap

Seems like everyone agrees the one on the left is an Endli. Thanks guys!

I've actually had these guys for about 2 years now, I think these should be the settled in colors.

Can you get a more clear shot/pic of the other one, maybe light on the tank and no sunlight?

Ah I see what you mean, the markings look just like the ansorgii markings, but just less contrast.

Unfortunately I don't have working lights at the moment, but sun is pretty much down now. I can try to get another pic.

Turn light on the room if possible?

Actually, I'm a dummy. I'll just go grab my other tank's lights and put them on this tank for now.
