Capturing distant quasar with Dwarf3

Exposure: 1 hour,Subs: 30s 50gain, Filter: astro, Bortle: 6, Processed in Siril, Stellar Studio. Twin quasar located 9 billion light years away from Earth and has visual magnitude of 17. For comparison, it is dimmer than Pluto. Between this quasar and Earth located a massive galaxy, that distorts light from quasar, making it appear as two very close dimm points of light. Unfortunately, on my image you can see only one, probably because Siril denoise mistook two points of light as one. But on image processed by Stellar Studio, you can see that it is elongated, although one hour of exposure is clearly not enough. On the scale of difficulty, I would give Twin quasar 8/10. However, on Siril processed image you can see even dimmer stars, on image with exposure of just 1 hour, which looks very promising. Because Dwarf3 is so capable, I want to capture dwarf planets, like Pluto (15 magnitude), Makemake( 17 magnitude), and maybe even Eris ( 18-19 magnitude)
