Hey guys,
I'm Lyon from Singapore. Recently we've received quite a number of cats which we have no idea on its ID. Ben (Amiidae) has helped me out in some but here's 2 more which we can't get.

Would these 2 be crossoloricaria?

Hi,

due to the long first dorsal spine and the filament on the caudal fin, I´d say Planiloricaria cryptodon for Nr. 1.
The second one is a different species, but no Crossoloricaria.

I think the bottom species is a just based on the overall shape and what I can see of the mouth.

Cheers.

I'd say the top one is Planiloricaria cryptodon.. would move it to a tank with sandy substrate. not so sure about the bottome specimen though.
