My 4 discus have been doing really well in my show tank. But today one of the males keeps going on his side, 90 degrees from vertical and then jumping back up

Every now and again i see one of my otto cynclids trying to attach its self to his body. But this is not the only time he goes on his side.

He looks perfectly happy other than this. If i put my hand in the water, he, and the others rush up for food. But on his own he keeps rocking and landing on his side.

I have cardinals, discus, rams and corrys. All others look normal.

Nothing has changed in the water or anything else!!
 
bump!
IT freaks out loads when the otto lands on it. But is still flopping when the otto is not there.
Maybe the otto wanting to be there is telling us something?!
 
As said above, I cant help. But i really hope it all works out :( Love discus!
