k so my girlfriend REALLY wanted this flowerhorn from my LFS

I brought him home about a week ago and 75 percent of the time, he just sits there, doing an inverted headstand. Like, treading water, facing straight down. Its just weird.

is this normal?
 
Ive seen mine do it every once and a while for a few seconds but i don't think its normal for them to do it all the time..im no expert on fh so i'd wait till you get some more replies.

Maybe a swim bladder problem? What are your water parameters?
 
ive had this guy for over a month now.
just something he has always done.
he swims fine, but when he isnt beating up my clownknife (argh)
hes doing the headstand thing
