Hello. I have a small regular dark-bellied blotchy upside down catfish. A friend of mine got me another pair but since Iā€™m novice to this type of cat, I want to seek your expertise if this is indeed an UD Cat. The belly isnā€™t dark but the tropical fish store (not chain pet store) said itā€™s an upside down. Thoughts?
Iā€™ve only seen it upside down once when it went to the surface.

Iā€™ve seen thousands of nigriventris and I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever seen one without the blotchy pattern.
Not sure which Syno it is though. How big is it? It kinda reminds me of Microsynodontis.

Itā€™s about 1.5ā€ long itā€™s got a few small spots. My friend said the tank has really large ā€œUD Catsā€ like 5-6ā€ long and 2ā€ wide.

Ahh crap I donā€™t want these but Iā€™m worried the store just might flush these down and Iā€™ll feel bad.
