Answers:It is possible that it is sick, but usually this is a result of poor water conditions. Test for ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. Eliminate those 3 possibilities first. If they all come back good, then you might want to look for signs of internal parasites/infections, external parasites/infections, or other causes.
What kind of catfish is it,do you have any idea, almost all catfish for aquariums are tropical fresh water and there are many different kinds.
Some catfish can be quite nocturnal and inactive during the day.

It could have a disease but heavy breathing is usually caused by a water problem.
