Yes nice fish, and they are not shy at all.
I have two of them.
Goes nicely together with my other Synodontis. Angelicus, Notatus and Nigrita.

You sure, HH?

I could have sworn it's a Synodontis schoutedeni, they sure look alike; and the stubby form, rounded lobes and fat belly threw me off....

Adipose fin is too far from the dorsal to be schoutedeni.
