People may have them but (mostly) think they are good old, highly variable in appearance Auchenoglanis occidentalis or A. wittei. The only one I know of who has one is Jippo from Finland (on PCF http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=2559 see keepers). And it took him much time and effort to ID his fish as such, if my memory serves.
