So basically my PS swims upside down ever since I moved my reef to my upgraded 20g. I don't know if this is ok or normal or if it has some sort of disease, other then this it's eats well and is generally ok

My skunk and peppermint both swim upside down and are very aggressive eaters my fire shrimp barely comes out of the rocks but I'm sure he likes swimming upside down as well. I'd say it's normal but I'm no expert.

Thanks, I'm thinking maybe because it has a ton more room to swim that it's doing this? But I'm not sure

I'd say that's probably accurate I'm sure an expert will chime in eventually and verify this for us.
