Synodontis ocellifer
or something similar. It'll be OK with a sun cat in a decent sized tank.

Hi Talon, IMHO it looks more like the most common syno hybrid. The opinion I expressed about your euptera question in the other thread http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/view ... =9&t=38891 pretty much applies here too.

The two you mentioned should be fine with the sun cat. The third is a shot in the dark.
