Synodontis quartet, ~8"-12", in 4500 gal

The trio of the decorus in the 1800 gal has been very shy for the last 2 years+ and hid behind the large Pterodoras granulosus by the back black wall to almost never be well seen. So I used an unrelated occasion and transferred them back into one of the 240 gal:

8:10-8:20 min

 
In the beginning of Jun 2022, a few synos rasped quarter-size hole in 16" sun catfish, which tipped the scale and 5 synos, 3 eupterus and 2 hybrids, got kicked out and went to the jerk tank.


For 2 months the wound wouldn't heal and I didnt know why until I finally caught smaller Neolissochilus mahseer mouthing the wound. The mahseer left the 1800 gal and the large craterous wound skins over in 9 days!

 
The end of Krol, 20 yo 1ft hybrid. We've had him 15 years since 2008.

 
What they had occasionally done in 1800 gal before getting evicted, they do now in 240 gal:

 
Another case of synodontis parasitic behavior described by the prior owner of an oscar. The only tankmate synodontis catfish wouldn't stop rasping on a wound on the oscar, had to be separated.
