It's hardly a substitute for salmon.

Some people prefer catfish over salmon. Tastes vary.

Catfish is a pretty good substitute for salmon in terms of macronutrients. Salmon does have higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids. But catfish may be safer in terms of heavy metals and other toxins, depending on where the fish were raised.

No, but it's a very sustainable fishery (and way tastier than tilapia IMO, the other popular land-based-farm fish)
