NANFA-L-- grass pike behavior in an aquarium

I have had a grass pike in my 30 gallon for about four weeks. It is about 9" and feeds well but seems to only have two modes...it either rubs its snout on the glass while pacing back and forth or it just sits on the bottom of the tank. Is this typical for grass pike or is there something not right with this individual? Maybe not adjusting? I had a grass pike about 15 years ago and I remember it usually hovering near the middle of the tank...I don't quite remember it laying on the bottom 50% of the time. Any comments appreciated

thanks
