I hate Electric cats!
I had one given to me a year or so ago it electrocuted my snakehead the SH was at least 3 times is size the snakehead then drown as its an air breather. Dont do a lot either only comes out at night YUK!! But then again horses for courses could be your thing.All those fish should be ok in your tank you have the depth and all the sizes are full grown. The only one you would have to move on is the Pictus shame as stunning looking fish. Had my Clarias for 2 years from 1" he is now about 14-15" and can fold him self in 1/2 . The real problem with cats most are nocturnal so having a tank with one large specimen can be a bit of a strange one you have a tank with hiding places and a hidden fish most off the time. A tank like that would be spot on for a Hoplias Malabarics a.k.a Wolf fish/Mud Characin they get to 20 but dont swim about a lot another nocturnal predator but look cool.
A clarias or lima would be fine in that tank, yeah maybe the pictus would be a bit big.
I've never seen in real life or photos a clarias or lima bigger than 18" or so in captivity, so in all likelyhood they won't get past that.
I have a clarias and lima in my 180, I like them both a lot. Both absolute pigs too, eat loads.

Limas are not fighters, but not that fragile either. They are a cool fish.
How about a tigrinus? You could get away with one in your tank, they rarely cruise the length of the tank and spend half their time waggling vertically.
What about the Asian RTC or a mystus wyckii? Both really cool, really mean cats that shouldn't get more than around 18" in captivity.
asian RTC = hemibagrus nemerus and mystus wyckii is now called hemibagrus wyckii.
