Hello, I purchased a sailfin tang (zebra) recently and my water level are perfect, but he is swimming near the top and sort of on his side. He eats fine and swims to other parts of the tank ocassionally. He breathes normally, there is a power head and two Marineland Biowheel filters, but this behavior seems a little strange. I used to have a yellow tang but he got bullied when the light were out and I have given the agressor back to the LFS. The yellow tang and my maroon clown were buddies, always side by side. I intended on getting another yellow but the sailfin Zebra was just so....so...pretty. Anyhow is this normal for a sailfin to hang out on its side??

What size tank?? (dimensions)
Is he swimming back and forth or just randomly?

is he "hanging out" in the dischareg area of the powerhead?
