Can someone ID this catfish?

Definitely some type of Synodontis, which I don't know exactly, perhaps a juvenile Big Eye Synodontis?

Nice looking fish.
I thought it looked like a jaguar catfish, but i could easily be wrong.

I agree with you spartan now that I see pics of other Jaguar cats. THanks for the ID. His mouth shape matches as well as fin placement/shape and body pattern arrangement.
Thanks!
Thanks!
thanks. Here he is in the palm of my hand just under the surface of the water. I got him free from my LFS guy. He's a pretty cool guy.
spartan, this is it exactly. It matches exactly in apperance.

Tatia perugiae aka Oil Catfish,
Yep that is it, I was wrong, not a Syndontis :bowing:
Search the Latin name at Planetcatfish, good info and pics
