3-4” Platinum Endlicheri Bichir

🐉 Platinum Endlicheri Bichir (3–4”) – Ultra-Rare Albino Morph of a Legendary Predator

Bring home one of the most eye-catching and exotic predator fish in the aquarium hobby with the Platinum Endlicheri Bichir (Polypterus endlicheri endlicheri – Albino Morph). At 3–4 inches, this juvenile is the perfect size to grow out, already displaying the stunning creamy white body, fiery red eyes, and prehistoric features that make this bichir a true collector’s dream.

Unlike the standard Endlicheri, this platinum variant is incredibly rare, prized for both its beauty and its monster fish potential. It offers all the power and personality of a typical Endlicheri—but in a striking, all-white morph that stands out in any predator tank.

⚔️ Behavior & Care Notes:

Platinum Endlicheri Bichirs are slow, deliberate predators that do best in:

• Low-light environments or blackwater-style setups

• Soft substrate with driftwood or smooth rocks

• Tightly fitting lids – they are escape artists!

Compatible tank mates include:

• Arowanas, Datnoids, Peacock Bass, Knifefish
