...and Asian (Horabagrus) but I personally and, perhaps, stupidly, do not see a big problem with the combo. Now, an expert can point out potential problems based on fishes' differing requirements. I always find such comments very edifying but so far, I side with those who say that vast majority of the common cats we keep are adaptable enough to be ok in almost any US/Canada water. One has to know, however, their water and which fish and what signs to keep an eye on.

Also, IME and IMO, 95%-99% of fish die in the care of an average fish-keeper from "accidents" (almost always has to do with spoiling the water - too much ammonia or other toxins, not enough oxygen; and sometimes bad tankmates, etc.) and not from a failure to adapt to the unfamiliar water parameters.

Nice tank. A full shot?
