How long have you had this fish?
When you say normal, what do you mean? What are the levels?
Is anyone picking on him?

well iv seen my coral banded snap at the fish if they get close, but iv never seen him actually touch any of em(that i know of). I'v had the PJ for about 2 months.
SL= 1.024
PH=8.3
NITRATE=0
NITRITE=0-5
AMMONIA=O
TEMP=78-84 fluctuates depending on how finky my POS heater gets, i have to get a new one

The temperature fluctuation is almost certainly the issue. This is probably stressing the fish out a lot. Plus, the shrimp does not help.

I like Won Bros. heaters. I have been using them for many years and have no problems with them. A Won Bros. 150 watt heater will do the job for you very well.
