DFishkeeper Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I was up in Brisbane yesterday visiting a few lfs as you do, and in one of them I saw a tankful of cute little catfish around 5-6cm labelled as "synodontis valenies". I haven't heard of these guys before and on enquiring was advised they grow to around the same size as adult cuckoo catfish (Synodontis multipunctatus), around 14-16cm. Today I've been googling and checking the planet catfish site and I can't find any reference to Synodontis valenies. Is anybody aware of a reference site for these guys and/or have any experience with them? Cheers, Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatsright99 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) S.Valentine.... Is what they are, not sure of mix but def ocel. On one of the sites it has about 8 types of hybrids. Aquaticrepublic look them up there. How much were they? Edited October 31, 2013 by thatsright99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquaholic99 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Only 7cm+ male S. decorus can be imported so these would be local bred and just because they are hybrid does not mean they are the same mix as overseas S. valantiana.
