I would say hybrid as well. From the angle the fish is in, I can't tell for sure, though.

That's a cool syno! Neat how the tail filament extends out. Nice find!

I use mostly NLS pellets, mysis and bloodworms. One thing with these is that they are highly sensitive to any changes in their water conditions (more than most synos) more smaller changes are better than one big changes IMO. They are relatively slow growing so of course optimum conditions for best ...

Hey guys, I just got three new Lucipinnis at about an inch and a half. I currently have them set up similarly to my Polli. (Lots if rocks and crevasses) What's their favorite foods? And how fast will they grow? I have them on a high protein diet and lots of water changes. I plan on getting three ...

Hey, Just wanted to share a couple videos of my Syno Polli. Both of these videos are a couple months old, and were taken on my phone sorry for the poor quality and me shooting them upright. And don't worry they're not in that tiny tank anymore haha, that was just for grow-out and quarantine purposes ...

Most fish in the picture are, as mentioned, S lucipinnis ;) But there's one bigger, with different markings, bigger/wider mouth, orange teeth. And I've put one in a close up picture, hoping to show it better. They are physically very different from my 18 S lucipinnis Yeah, I was thinking on that ...

I'd wait for some of the other, better experts, but I think this synodontis lucipinnis. A close relative of the Petricola.

Have you any more pics? The only account I know of true Polli spawning in the aquarium is by the cuckoo method & captured on film on youtube I will definitely try to get you some more. I don't have a very good camera. So it's not even close to as easy as Petricola? If I were to attempt this in the ...

They will be going in with Africans I wanted to grow them out a little bit. I was looking at these two and they seem to be male and female! So hopefully in the future.... When I get more. Has anyone been successful at breeding these? Do you treat them like petricola? Thanks for the help guys!! Also ...

I just got in 3 of these awesome synos buy one died some point during delivery. :(( But I was wandering what I should feed my Polli? They're about 1 3/4in - 2in. I have frozen blood worm and spirulina, is that enough? If not I can get many other frozen foods. And can they eat shrimp pellets? Here's ...

Nice! Thanks for the help!

Hi this is my first time using the site. I was wondering if you guys could give me your expertise? Now, I'm usually pretty good with synos but the petricola, polli, and lucipinnis identification gives me a lot of trouble. Is this a petricola or lucippinis? And is this a true polli or a hybrid? They ...
