Synodontis multipunctata
Cuckoo Catfish, Cuckoo Synodontis, Multi-Spotted Synodontis
Synodontis multipunctatus, commonly known as the Cuckoo Catfish, has a unique breeding strategy where it exploits the nests of mouthbrooding cichlids. They are relatively peaceful but can be territorial as they grow. They do well in groups of similar species and should be provided with ample hiding spaces like caves and rocky structures.
