Synodontis dhonti is a benthopelagic fish, meaning it inhabits the lower layers of the water column but can occasionally rise to the midwater. The species is recognized for its elongated, slightly compressed body, characteristic of the Mochokidae family, known for their ability to 'squeak' when out of water by rubbing the spines of their pectoral fins.
