I also don't know much about dragons, but I found some interesting bits on the net

While none of the sheets really talk about dragons immersing themselves for long periods at a time, they do mention that humidity has to be quite high. Perhaps the humidity isn't high enough? Or maybe your dragons thinks he's a fish.
