As
all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs.
Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to
state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale
no longer work as 02/22/10.
We are changing our tropical fish
suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back,
because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,
15 years of selling tropical fish online and
safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any
complaints!!!

Synodontis decorus
Native Region:
Africa - Zaire & Camaroon.
Temperament: Peaceful.
Feeding: Feed sinking pellets, flakes and freeze dried
foods.
Sexing: Mature females are larger
than males.
General Comments: The Synodontis Decorus
Catfish, also known as the Decorus Catfish or Decorated Synodontis, is known
scientifically as Synodontis decorus, S. vittatus, and S.
labeo. It is a member of the naked catfish group.
A 50 gallon or larger aquarium
with a warm, stable temperature, and plenty of rocks and plants is a suitable
environment. The Synodontis Decorus Catfish is a very peaceful tank member and
appreciates having several hiding places. It co-exists well with larger Tetras
and most African Cichlids similar in size.
When netting, one must be very
careful of the spines on the pectoral fins which have serrated edges. These can
become easily entangled in netting and may cause injury to the fish or hobbyist.
Currently, the Synodontis
Decorus Catfish is not being successfully bred in the aquarium.
