Unidentified Synodontis sp.

Post by BullFishkeeping »

Hello,

I am looking for identification for this fish.

The seller wants $80 CAD for it, though as I am unsure of what it is, I refuse to buy it for any price.

Thank you

IMO it's a juvenile . I wouldn't expect to pay anywhere near that in the UK, maybe £10-15 GBP.

Appreciate the ID everybody. Figured this person was trying to pull a fast one.
