Identify This Cat, ???Synodontis Ocellifer???

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of Catfish this is? The closest I have got is maybe a Synodontis Ocellifer? I have looked everywhere. Baensch Atlases Vol 1-3 do not even list him.

I "acquired" him from my brother who gave me him and an albino rainbow shark in a 30gal tank. These two room mates share hiding spots. They get along great and give my tiger barbs a run for their money at times.
The Cat is completly nocturnal. I was very lucky to get these pictures (he was lured out with an algae wafer). He is not shy at all just does not like the light. He is approx 3 inches and no more than a year old.
Anyway, any help in finding out his indentity would be great.

It sure looks like it. So until someone else tells you what they know it is, just go by that. Sorry I couldn't help that much.
