Tomorrow off I go to Syracuse for my first ever rabbinical student in residence sort of thing. Wish me luck- I am starting to get a bit nervous...

Is a paper fish ok b'dieved? What if it's really well drawn and lifelike? What about a model that the person being hit doesn't realize isn't a real fish?

The CJLS has ruled that if all possible avenues for acquiring real fish have been exhausted, one may use a paper fish. However, one should not say the berakha ("... vetzivvanu `al diyyug hasho'el").

Can I put my fish tank on wheels?

Arye Leyb of Bowmore used a tank on wheels.

How about the katan? Does the katan need to have a boat accessible?

Halakhically, no. However, the mekubbalim relate the oniya to hesed, and hesed corresponds to... well, nobody knows. Right around here they pass out from too much Scotch and imitation herring.
