Caitlin,

Martin is correct when saying your fish is about fully grown. The description of the species Synodontis obesus (Bougenger 1896) gives the total length of 375mm for the largest specimen.

These fish come from the Gabon, Ghana and Cameron.

Good luck with your fish, let us know how it settles in.

Regards
Steve
