odd behavior

Why would a fish (Emperor tetra) be hanging out in the outflow current, riding the flow when it has a swim bladder problem? For a couple of months now he's been swimming around the tank like a kid learning to swim. you know, head up high and almost vertical. he's been doing alright but I didn't expect him to last this long. These last days though he hangs in one spot just riding the current. Why?  he doesn't have to stay there. is he joyriding or suicidal? It's just odd to me.

neither do I, really. Was more hoping for someone to share common experiences or have some insight to this behavior. It is a weird thing to do. I just wanted to know why it chose to do that. there must be a reason, right. Never mind.
