Sleeping catfish!!

Have a tank for the kiddies that I stock with stuff I catch at the lake.
Put in a minnow trap and usually catch minnows and blue gill.
Last year i caught a shovel nose catfish!
Been hoping to catch one of those for years!!
This thing is weird.
It actually sleeps floating on top of the tank, and looks dead.
Sorry for crappy pics taken on 5 year old $20 cell phone.





It is definitely still alive, and has been doing this since I got it.
Pretty active during the day and has a VERY healthy appetite.

Is this normal?
Freaked me out the first couple of times I saw it.
