Young male corn won't put his tail down?

My male corn, Apollo, is about 5 months old, and recently he started lifting his tail up off of the floor of his tank. The conditions in the tank are fine, he just keeps that part of his body lifted straight up in the air for some reason. It's only when he's slithering around, though. It looks quite strange and I can't find anything about it online. Has anybody else experienced this with their corn? Is it anything to be concerned about?

Thanks!
 
I had one do that too a while back but it stopped. Never figured out what it was but was thinking his tail fell asleep from staying coiled too long. Lol kinda like how you can't get your leg to do what you want when it falls asleep. After a few beers and a lot of thinking this was the only theory I had. Lol maybe someone else knows
 
What is your bedding? If it is the fine aspen, check his anal vent to see if he has some aspen stuck there. Sometimes it happens, even in adults.
