Bichir id?

[Shane87]

I got him today and he was labeled as an ornate bichir but after someone pointed out to me it didn't look like 1 and after searching google images I agree but what is it? I am hoping its 1 that grows big because its a tank mate for my tiger shovel nose cat.

So far I'm getting "endi bichir".

Pretty bichir! I had never known about this kind. I've got a polypterus Delhezi. Love eels.

Looks like a delhezi to me http://www.aquascapeonline.com/products/banded-birchir-3-polypterus-delhezi.html

Thanks for the replies, I can't decide what 1 it looks more like! They look so similar, the bottom jaw on mine slightly protrudes the front, does that make a difference?

 

[Shane87]

I think it maybe a saddled bichir? :/ what do you guys/girls think?

Just researched it more and saddled bichir is an endi bichir I think it's 1 of them
