Looks like a Synodontis Multipunctatus, the cuckoo cat. You can tell from the large eye and the shape of the dorsal fin and the white on the trailing edge of the dorsal.

yeah multipunctatus. The eye is a give away. I have the polli and the eyes are less than half that size in comparison to the head

Hey Ant
Are the 2 fish in the pic the same colour in real life or is it just the camera angle that makes them look diff?

I think that the fish we call Synodontis polli in Perth/Australia are in fact Synodontis sp (2). Search on planet catfish.
