Never trust a catfish with skinny fish.....that might worry me. The ornate might start biting fins as it will also out grow the new pair.
I would guess so but I’d never trust a catfish with anything that it could at least try fitting in its mouth. I once had a tiny little redtail that ate 2 neons and 1 platy that were almost as big as it was in a few hours. I would just maybe try seperating them asap.
Sounds like a race. Who’s going to eat the small polys first? Will it be the bullhead or the ornate.? Both are likely candidates especially after lights out. 
Great example of why we want to research our fish before we buy them, not after. Been there before.
You can try to separate with eggcrate light diffuser. Might need to make 2 sections and off set them so the holes are half size. The small polys would most likely squeeze through a single set of egg crate.
What is the outcome of this mix?
