L-200 Is this a high fin?

I have an L-200 Lemon Spotted Pleco in a 20 long 30"x12"x12' tank with a small shoal of 6 Paleatus Cory's, The other day I put the Cory's into another tank and ever since the L-200 has been acting like he/she is on speed! It comes out in the light now and swims like a fool all over the tank, even kicking gravel up.
Can anyone explain this behavior?

I have 1 (male i think) L 200 in a 55g with some discus and a few panda/green corydoras. My 200 comes out a few times a day to Play with the cories. It is quite fun to watch them. I have never moved them out so I dont know how he would react. Is this the only one in the tank? Maybe he is a little lonesome?

Would this be considered a high fin?

I would say yes but im not for sure, it does look pretty high. I just noticed you are from KY, if you dont mind me asking what general area?

I would say no.
Missing the membran from adipose fin to dorsal fin.

Neither has an extended dorsal connected to the adipose. The pic isn't the best for IDing purposes.

I can't tell from the picture. Can you take some clearer ones? I'm about to post a picture today of an l200 "low fin" so you can see the membrane difference mentioned above.
