My giant bumblebee catfish flips on its side or lays on its back in the day is that normal (at first I suspected swim bladder but he swims perfectly fine, he flips backover after a minute or two).
 
Mine use to lay on its side at times but not upside down. If it’s acting normal then I’d watch it.

IDK about the GBBC specifically but many Pseudopimelodidae spend some of their time resting in their hides on their sides or back.
