Clown Trigger Behaviour

My Clown Trigger has been behaving a little differently for the past 4 weeks or so. It spends a good amount of time in this position and this exact same spot.

There is another spot that it likes to "hang out" at, that being up near the top of the left overflow.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced a Clown Trigger doing this kind of thing and if it is of any concern. Is this the first sign of the psychotic stage? At feeding time he's as normal as ever.

Of note is my Pink Tail likes to lay up alongside the Clown when it's in this position. I'll try to get a pic of that. Although Pinky is the most timid toward me, he's the king of the tank.

Here's a pic of the Pink Tail alongside the Clown.

Not the best pic, but you get the idea.

Thoughts?

Thanx much,

Doesn't look like healthy behavior, it may be sick. What size tank?

180g. Four Triggers. The two mentioned...a Humuhumu and a Blue Chin. Lots of room, but I think there are some territorial mind games going on.
