Hopefully I can get a video of hand feeding he just seems to get spooked every time I get out my phone

Awesome fish, good luck with your breeding. I am only keeping 1 syno at the moment but he is my favorite fish.
Synodontis Granulosus

Any idea what it is and how to treat it.
Should i be worried about the other fish in the tank?

So I have been talking to the person who sold me the fish and apparently it was not Ided correctly I am now being told it is .

Just sharing my new awesome cat
Once he settles in and I turn on the lights I will post better pics
