Synodontis Petricola or Lucipinnis?

Post by boosterman »

Hi,
I got 5 Synodontis catfish that was given to me as Petricolas.
They are about 1 1/2'' to 2''.
After doing some research, I think these are Lucipinnis from the spots being scarce and not uniform.
I was only able to take pictures of three different ones.
Can anyone confirm my speculation?

Thanks.

Agree with Birger
Lou: Every young man's fantasy is to have a three-way.
Jacob: Yeah not with another fu**!ng guy!
