Which synodontis do I have?

[bbellott]

I picked up some juvenile synodontis recently and I was wondering what type I have? Also what are some parameters/tank mates for these curious little catfish?

Thanks!!

Hope the picture is good enough for an ID…

Look's lika a Synodontis schoutedeni

One of the best looking guy's IMO , i have 1 he's smaller than all my other syno's but very pretty . More info here http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species=synodontis+schoutedeni&species_id=350

Thanks for your help, that pic looks exactly like my fish. The fish is still pretty small, but I am excited to see it grow up.

Thanks again!

Thanks for your comments... I hope they turn into some great fish!! I can't wait to get them into the main tank and see how they react with all the other fish...

I have 5 of them total. So your thinking common name featherfin catfish eh?? Looking at planet catfish I would have to agree! Thanks for your time!

Nice catfish. How big do they grow?

If they are Synodontis Eupterus(common name Featherfin Catfish), they live for a very long time and grow up to 8 in.
