Hi guys ... Can anyone identify this catfish?
He's pretty big, about 5ins I think (not great at mental measuring). Thanks Attach file:  IMG00035-20100412-0716.jpg (224.49 KB) |

Synodontis eupterus is the scientific name for the Featherfin Catfish, it's also called the Featherfin Squeeker along with several other varients on the names Featherfin, Squeeker, Synodontis and Catfish.
I have a featherfin too and I think that's what you've got in the photo - but there are so many catfish I can't be 100%. |
