Re: Cuckoo Catfish
Yes multis & your hybrids are from the mochokidae family & both from the genus 'synodontis'. The multi is a rift lake species & your hybrid is half lake species (multi or grandiops [father]) & half decora [mother] a riverine species. Can they breed or would this have something to do with the ...

Cuckoo Catfish
Just a quick question I have one Cuckoo Catfish (Synodontis multipunctatus)
That I got from a friend two weeks ago and tonight it started acting strange with jumping and splashing out the water. Can anyone tell me a bit more about this behaviour.

Re: Synodontis euptera Catfish Ich question.
That stocking list is more appropriate for a 110 gallon tank and even then there are issues, it is no wonder your Synodontis is getting scratched up, there will be stress and fighting going on because the fish have barely any room to move. Thanks for your advice Only one fish in the tank is big ...
