No Synodontis species live in saltwater.

i didnt think soooo..i am going to ask again just in case they have gotten this wrong.....how about any catfish species..please do not mention any thing rare as i do not think that this person would have a rare catfish...(its been described as dark coloured, wth black spots and whiskers that all i got...)

that would be my completely uneducated guess...take a look at him and see if he looks similar...but as cfc already said it is probably not saltwater whatever it is

 

[BOD]

i have no idea i havent seen it yet..i will not get to see it till sunday....!!! i will ask for some more information from this person to see what they are going on about...

Very few catfish live in saltwater at all. There are a few things like coral catfishes which are small eel- looking fish that are black with white stripes. They look very cool!

I think that this person is either telling you a porky or genuinly doesnt know what they are doing!.....

[BOD]

[BOD]

ok i just searched the WHOLE of planet catfishes syno list and the only thing which looks remotly like it is..

Synodontis angelicus Schilthuis, 1891
Common Name Polka Dot Syno
so im guessing that they are these...

 

[cla55y19]
