We'd all probably need a bit more information on how you have him set up...are there places he can climb into or onto, and then maybe tumble off of? They can be very adventurous and curious! My hermanni sometimes wind up upside down for some reason, (I've never actually seen it happen, so I don't know what they are doing), when trying to get into or out of their water dish, which is very shallow for this reason. There's never deep enough water that they can drown, even upside down, and it's well away from any lighting, so they don't overheat, which is a big concern when they flip. Does he seem to be able to use all of his limbs ok otherwise?
