| the ones we have are shoal fish... so we got 3 and its great to see them all swimming round together... all though they have destroyed a plant... it has to be them, cos it was fine when just the mollies were in the tank :2431: _________________   ~The dog is a gentleman!

| jan check ur fish finder site check these names and see if u get a pic to match
that looks like urs or post a pic and i'll find it
synodontis eupterus 6 inches (31inches)
synodontis alberti 6inches " "
synodontis decorus 10 inches (39inches)
synodontis filamentosus 7inches (59inches)think its this one Jan
the size in bracket is tank size required other is max size of fish in aquarium
if it is this one read on
keeping singular is recommended,this is aggresive towards con-specifics as well as hetrospecifies and will defend their territory energetically :thinking: |
