Weird Fish Behavior

I have a bicolor/ yellow tail goby that for a while would swim into the current from a return head and ride the wave across the tank. Now it purposely swims up to the overflow and lets it suck it's body sideways and sits there letting the water flow over it for half a minute or so, then swims away- usually back to it's cubby hole

Does anyone else have fish do weird things

@DYIguy No visible pests on the fish?

Yes, fish do the craziest things

I have two ocellaris. The female spends its day inside my Coral Beauty and at night she sleeps inside the frogspawn. The male sleeps with my Midas Blenny :oo:

No visible pests- it's actually a blenny, not a goby- had it for almost a year- the only thing I've noticed is that it's belly is bloated- been that way for a few weeks

I recently got a Tomini tang- one of the first concerns is always whether the fish will eat- it picked a bit at first, ignored nori- now it eats constantly picking at rock and walls, but it takes a dump in the same place- right next to the front glass- I can even count them- maybe it's sending me a message :D
