Need a ID please

[mqktandy]

Hey guys need a ID quick picked up 3 of these guys at about 6" to clean the 1500.



Im 99% sure its some sort of synodontis.

i'd have to agree with you.

 

[zenyfish]

Synodontis euptera. Great fish BTW.

Sweet anyone with much experience with these guys. Growth rate and what not. They are all about 6" now. Got all 3 for $60. They wont get fed anything special as I want them to clean up after the big cats

 

[headbanger_jib]

they usually slow down growing at 7-8"
like to hide a lot
very eager eaters
aggressive amongst conspecifics, and they suck slime big time of bichirs and any other scale less fish

 

[mqktandy]

Do u think they will bother my other large catfish?

They might get eaten. My friend had an 18" rtc and it ate his two 7" synodontis that he had in the tank.

both of my big cats don't eat small fish. So I should be ok.
