Has a gravid spot ??

Idk, theres this dark spot behind the belly

and its by itself in the tank

i did get it about 2 weeks ago so maybe it was sexed in the lfs?

Also the catfish is eating ALOT and pooping alot (one of the castles is filled with poop) and it eats all of the food in a couple minutes (3 shrimp pellets in 5 minutes)
 
your catfish may very well be pregnat, the only problem is the fertilizing of the eggs, catfish are not live bearers, your catfish could be pregnant for even a couple more months
 
Do you have a picture? This does not sound like a Corydoras.

Female Corydoras usually have a soft white plump belly "pillow". They do not have an obvious "gravid spot" like Betta that I can think of. The female Corydoras wll get round and very plump often rolling and swaying in water movement when she is gravid. There are some species of Corydoras, genus of Callichthyidae and some other Catfish families that are a bit different in their physical gender differences.
