Sorry about the awful picture quality i’ve got a better one of him now, I’ve never actually owned any types of synodontis in all honesty but I loved him to pieces so I had to get him, I’m only concerned about if he will actually grow any bigger than he already is because he’s actually pretty big.
Okie dokie will have a look in a second. He was in a tank with tin foil barbs and Im 99% sure I saw a large red tail shark in there too which coming to think of it explains why the dorsal fin is a bit worn and why he was constantly hiding in a large ornament, so far he’s been super active even in the light and is actually weirdly friendly towards me haha especially when i’ve put my arm in to move a sponge filter haha.
haha i know nothing about those lol it is very cute though. strange creature.
Haha I didn’t know much when I bought him either haha, he is so so cute I love his huge eyes and he’s full of character and probably the clumsiest fish I’ve ever owned haha
now i want one haha i dont know where to get it though lol. sad life that i can only have 1 tank lol
I actually got mine from maidenhead! Also bought some rosy tetras which Ive also never heard of or seen but they look stunning and somehow worked really well with my cichlids aswell!I had one probably 15 years ago? Still think about them a lot, always see them in the big tanks at Maidenhead clearly given to the shop after they out grew the tank they were bought for.
Tough fish too, should be ok with your cichlids
Hahaha I definitely recommend them but they are quite big as adults, Mines in a 4ft long tank and he still looks huge, but he’s full of personality and i just fed him some blanched peas
Ooo that’s a cooler name haha and I’ll have to monitor them, my lfs wouldn’t sell me deep bodied tetras which was interesting and they reccomended the bentosis but they do look absolutely stunning
Sorry if I wasn’t clear I meant as deep bodied as black widow tetras and columbian tetras, my tetras seem to be more streamlined and that could be a big problem I might move them out into a different tank when I can afford it, thank you for warning me
