I have a cat that I would like to positively confirm, as well as a pleco. Pictures attached.

I believe the cat to be a Tatia intermedia, and the pleco as a Pseudorinelepis genibarbis

Look at for the woodcat.

It does not have the more vertical, extended dorsal fin that the fisheri appears to have, respectfully.

I agree it's Trachelyopterus, and it could be a female . But I'd also consider .

The pleco in not sure about.

Cheers, Eric

Thank you both for your input.

The more I look at Trachelyopterus, I would agree that it is in the same family.

A little history on the fish. It was collected by a group of us in Peru in August 2022, in a tributary to the Ucayali River. It is one of the more interesting specimens that I brought back, though its nocturnal habits have made it difficult to see it out and about.

Definatley not a T. intermedia, Based on the anal fin definitely a Trachelyopterus. The Jaw-shape in T. galeatus is very unique and is an identifying feature. Your's appears to display this. Also even if it didn't have the jaw this is a male fish and adult male T. fisheri look different as stated above by others. I am 99.99% confident on the woodcat I am not a pleco expert so I am of no help
there.
Thanks,

Edit: just saw your new reply if it is peruvian it is probably similar to Eric's group of fish. There are no Peruvian fisheri so this makes me even more confident

Yes to for the pleco.
