Ok, here is the first ID test for you TSN and catfish lovers. Which are these three?

Middle's a P. reticulatum, left is P. corruscans. Not sure on the other.

Naw,
P. orinocoense
P. tigrinum
P. corruscans (probably an undescribed species actually, look at the caudal fin for lack of spotting and body for lack of spotting as well.)

i was looking at that as well. but all the fins are laid flat and all the color has gone. i was looking at the pattern which the patterns matched with my choices.

Yeah, but the spots are not lost with death, as visible with the other two species also on the table.
