Hi All,

On behalf of a friend, I picked up six Synodontis this evening. They were imported as . These are still pretty small, the largest about 2" TL.

I'm just baby-sitting/foster parenting them for now. I'll pass them along to their rightful owner (my friend) when we meet this summer.

Any thoughts on the fish?

Cheers, Eric

Look like hybrids to me

These are the Zambian or white polli

White pollis would be nice. Hybrids not so much. Let's hope for the former.

Cheers, Eric

As I am the "friend" I thought polli whites from the start but could just be juvi polli pattern fooling me. We will see soon enough how they develop.

I don't tell. But now the cat is out of the bag.

FYI, they are eating quite nicely - they even seem to eat the Nutrafin freeze-dried "red grubs," although those float for the most part and don't sink well.

Cheers, Eric
