Which Synodontis?

Post by EtOH »

I picked this guy/gal up a couple of months ago labeled as an upside down catfish. However, he doesn't swim around upside down. He sometimes rests upside down under rocks. Any ideas? Looks kind of like a juvenile Eupterus to me, but I don't really know what to look for.
