Vitaminz Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Can't seem to find the name of this fish.... Any ideas??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Can you get a pic of the whole fish? The pic is pretty dark, but it looks like a Synodontis sp. How big is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitaminz Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) Hi Everybody, I have uploaded new pics, they aren't that great quality...Took them with the wife's camera, I don't let her have access to my SLR....lol http://pbckt.com/sS.dC8s I have 2 of these in my tank, they were part of a package deal with the tank that I have. I have had them a little over a month.... I would say they are both between 3 to 4 inches, and quite bulky.... Hope this helps.

rayfong Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Synodontis eupterus is the my best guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I too think it's S. eupterus, or perhaps an hybrid. Very nasty case of HTH, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitaminz Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 The HTH makes perfect sence, When I picked up this tank from the seller, it was very neglected... I had to tear down the tank when picking it up, and it was pretty green. Also when cleaning the tank before first set up, I had taken off a thick layer of Algae on the back of the tank. Since the first set up, I do weekly 20% water changes in the tank, and have put in a UV underwater filter, seems to have cured the algae issue the tank had previously. Thanks guys for helping me identify this fish, you guys are awesome! Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
