Banjo catfish

Also this species is sometimes available but I am not sure of the name, the video says aspredo but I think it's amaralia.

Edit: after doing a quick double check I believe this one is verrocosus.

I don’t have a great pic of it here’s one that shows the most of him.

Even that one is hard to tell but it does seem like you have one of the rarer species. Most of them look very similar and the taxonomy hasn't been settled on a few of them yet.

Do you have an idea on which one it could be?

I would really need to see the whole fish, maybe someone else would have an idea.

I’ll try to get a pic of the whole thing but he doesn’t like to come out to the open too often.

Don't hassle him if you don't need to. The important part is that you have a cool fish you can enjoy. Just wait another year or two for him to move again and then you can get a good picture of him.
