Need Help Identifying my Synodontis Catfish? Any help...?

Post by o_beas »

Just recently bought a Synodontis Catfish and don't know what kind it is? I saw it within a group of small fish and had to get it. Do any of you know if it's a hybrid? Maybe Jaguar? Clown? Any comments or observations would be highly appreciated.

Agree with hybrid, (1) most likely... but will become more apparent when bigger. Not any genuine kind, that's for sure.
