Unknown cat needs ID'in (please & thanky)

Someone on another site was asking for an ID of this cat.
They think it might be a Synodontis punctulatus but they aren't sure.
The pic they posted in the thread was too dark to make out most of the details, so I cranked up the gamma correction to lighten it enough to see.

Ancistrus sp 5?

I noticed a green algae problem starting up in our Swordtail fry grow-out tank. I was gonna see about a few otto's, but they didn't have any at our local Big Al's. The gold SAE's didn't look all the great and most of the other pleco's wouldn't be right for a fry tank.
The manager gave me a good ...

Suicidal Syno

Found one of our 3 little Syno. cats dead today.:cry:

For some reason, the smaller of the 2 Syno. Multipunctatus had swam up into the AC20 filter. It might have survived in there except it had gotten caught in the Bio-media's mesh bag. The position it was caught in had forced it's head & most of ...

You probably know, but Bichir are lethal to small fish,

You need to be very careful of any fish that could possibly fit in a Bichir's mouth, ESPECIALLY any fish that like to inhabit the lower section of the water column. Regardless of the Plecos & Cats defensive Dorsal/Pectoral spikes, Bichir seem to be Hard-wired to go after small bottom feeders.

Thanks for the quick response

Yeah, that looks like it.
Synodontis sp.(3)
Too bad there isn't a little more info.
It would be nice to know what they're progenitors were.

Am I going Cuckoo?

I just got this little guy from someone who is downsizing his Aquarium hobby.
It was sold to him a few weeks ago as a "Synodontis ocellatus".

I have my doubts, it's got way too many spots to be a Domino Syno (Synodontis notatus ocellatus).
It's spots are fairly large & mostly oblong, so it doesn ...
