Default Mystery catfish

Hi guys,
Thanks for a much-needed new approach to aquarium literature. On page 138 of your book, in the eclectic cichlid tank, there is a pair of light-green spotted catfish that are not specifically identified...would you care to clear up the uncertainty for me?
Regards,
Clint

Thank you!

The common name is "Giraffe cat". I'll have to double check that scientific name, can't think of it at the moment-- though someone else will probably beat me to it (please feel free!)

That's it! Except the ones in the book look like they're a really cool light green color. They'd probably crash right out of my 50 gal. planted cube...
