Yes they are!
This is because goldfish and catfish eat different food stuffs and have different behaviors/ habits.
Catfish like to hide out around/ under objects and mostly eat food from the bottom of your fishtank. Catfish eat the algae in your tank and will need supplementary food [expensive] before it is all gone not just because of starvation but because they also need other minerals and proteins.
Goldfish are passive creatures and will not harm the catfish. Gold fish often come up to where you feed them, which is usually right at the very top waterline.
Try a similar sized catfish or two [like a bristlenose] to your goldfish and don't put more fish in than the number that will fit end to end over your tanks long side.

You only have one catfish and a few goldfish and the catfish had eggs how?
Catfish eggs are fertilized by the male after being They must be goldfish eggs. It is nearly impossible to have catfish breed on their own in a tank or pond. Any fish female can have eggs, the eggs are fertilized after the female lays the eggs. So if the eggs hatch then most likely they be goldfish.
