Help with identification TIA ! ! ! ! !

Post by Fin »

Hello everyone i'm new to Planet Catfish Image

I'm new to Synodontis and I found myself the other day curious when I seen 3 cats which looked like Synodontis species at the local fish store , though i'm not sure which variant they are and search through your section that listed pictures and information I decided to purchase them as unknown due to that they looked like they had lots of character.. I hope that someone may help me out and identify these as some looked the same on the list

Thanks very much Oliver :D

It kinda gets confusing after you viewed 20 or more pictures trying to identify catfish .It sure helps when someone like yourself posts a great picture to help identify :cheers:
