It seems odd to me that your upside-down cat (S. nigriventris) would only
come out at night. The ones I have had have always been diurnal. A number
of other riverine Synodontis species are sold as upside-downs, when in truth,
they only swim upside down near the surface, or under cover. Some of these
are nocturnal, and all Synodontis that I am aware of are carnivorous. While
I wouldn't put it past a large enough pleco, I would suspect your Synodontis.
