Id For Me Please

[elthznd901]

I originally thought this was a pictus, but now after seeing some ID's here and descriptions elsewhere wonder if its some type of Synodontis. This fish was given to me.

its definitely not a pictus, looks like a featherfin syno to me.

Thanks. Its hard to get him to sit still.. here are a few other pics not sure if they will help or not.

It's not a S.euptera (featherfin) - neither the dorsal or adipose fins are large enough for a fish of this size, and the spots too few. It does rsemble Synodontis ocellifer, but again the dorsal is wrong for that species. I hate to say hybrid (seem to be saying it losts lately ) but there is definitely S.euptera in the parentage, I'd suggest this is a euptera/ocellifer cross, but the guys over at PlanetCatfish would be able to confirm better than me.

I'm leaning towards hybrid too.

Me three - its a shame that all these Hybrid synos are coming up now - especially when there is such a demand for stuff like Cuckoos.
