The Synodontis flavitaeniatus catfish is commonly known as the Pyjama Catfish or Orangestriped Squeaker. The "69" in your query appears to be an arbitrary prefix, possibly an inventory or catalog number, and not part of the fish's common name. 

Key Characteristics and Care
  • Appearance and Size: This species has a cream to golden base color with bold, dark horizontal stripes that can be tinged with orange or yellow, inspiring its common names. It grows to about 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) in length, making it one of the medium-sized Synodontis species.
  • Origin: It is native to the middle Congo River basin in Central Africa.
  • Behavior: It is a generally peaceful and social fish, best kept in groups of four or more individuals. It is mostly nocturnal, using its barbels to forage on the bottom of the tank.
  • Aquarium Requirements:
    • Tank Size: A minimum of an 80-gallon aquarium with ample floor space is recommended for an adult, or larger for a group.
    • Water Parameters: It thrives in stable water with a pH between 6.0–7.5 and a temperature of 72–79 °F (22–26 °C).
    • Aquascape: Provide plenty of hiding spots such as rock caves, driftwood, and pipes. A soft, sandy substrate is crucial to protect its sensitive barbels.
    • Filtration: Robust filtration and good aeration are essential, as this species is sensitive to poor water quality.
  • Diet: It is an omnivore and will accept a varied diet including high-quality sinking pellets, flakes, and frozen or live foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp.
  • Compatibility: It is compatible with similarly sized, non-aggressive fish such as Congo Tetras or larger African characins.
