Odd behavior.

I don't know if this is normal or not, but I went to give him a nice warm (80 degree) soak in the tub yesterday because that stupid last piece of shed really bothers me, and he was really calm at first. For a minute or so, he just kinda floated in the water with his head up. Then, out of nowhere, he started freaking out. He climbed up the side of the tub and just stared at me. I put my hand close to him and he wanted to wrap around me. The water temp was perfect, so I have no idea what that was all about.

The weirder thing, though, is that when he freaks out, he does somersaults. Full on, upside down, twisting and turning. It looks like what people describe in Jag CPs as wobble. However, if I turn him upside down, he rights himself immediately. Is this a neuro issue other than wobble, or is my little guy just a weirdo?

(Just as a disclaimer, I only nudged him back into the water because AS SOON as I pulled my phone out to record what he was doing, he stopped doing it and rested against the wall. Kinda like when you take your computer to get fixed, it suddenly works again.)
