Of a stronger dorsal framework, and with the same extension to the caudal, we have Synodontis nigrita (in particular those seen as Synodontis sp. 'Zaire'), again widely bred in Eastern Europe and often seen in the U.K.
Baensch states that most of the Synodontis Catfish have not been bred in captivity, with the exception of the Upside-Down Catfish, Synodontis nigriventis and possibly the Black Synodontis, Synodontis nigrita.
