I've had a catfish for years and all it seems to do is swim quickly along the bottom of the tank and then go and hide under rocks. You would think it was going crazy by the way it wiggles back and forth so uncontrollably. To me, this is normal catfish behavior... especially for small cats. I place a few bottom feeder pellets in the tank and let them sink near its hiding place and soon the cat will come out and eat the food. It all happens so fast that it's hard to see. I bet your catfish is fine.
