The male has the unique dorsal. Do you see one with that? The caudal is a pretty big give though.

I'm fairly confident they're fisheri.

Also, the barbels are held close to the body and then extend out. They have fairly long barbels.

Jaws,did you get any of these?
I've got my eye on some, just don't want to spend the money if they hide a lot.
Reading this sounds like they could be quite active.I have read mixed reports.

I had a woodcat awhile back..
Mine was active during feeding ate anything including pellets, shrimp, tilapia ect..
Easy going cat was never aggressive to my other fish but not sure about the same species since I kept mine alone.
