Question Why Arowana swim head up from water surface?

Hi sifu.
Recently my Arowana swim fast with vertical head up from water surface like water skiing . When I walk towards him, he swim back to normal.

Water PH around 7 n free from ammonia.

Any idea?

Note : he didn't want to eat anything, thinking switch back to super worm 😔

Hi Alphi.
Water parameters looks a ok.

Hi streetsmart73.
I am not sure n hungry ghost month was over

Hi CZQ.
No, only partly head is above surface where half of the head and body is still in the water----Kind like 45° standing.

The funny thing is when I walk near by or trying to take video, he swims like normal.
