The Topsy-turvy habitat is entry No. 027 in the Habitat Dex, and it is built entirely from Lampions hung upside down on a ceiling. It sits in Bobbly Basin, carries a 2-star Rare rating, and needs exactly three Lampions to complete.
Quick answer: Collect three Lampions from the outside walls of buildings in Bobbly Basin, go inside a building, and place all three close together on the ceiling. When they sparkle, the habitat restores.

Lampions hang on the exterior walls of buildings throughout Bobbly Basin. Walk around the town area and look along the outside of structures, where the lamps are attached to the walls. Take three of them, since that is the full amount the habitat needs.

How to place the Lampions and restore the habitat

How to confirm the habitat is restored
Once the three Lampions are grouped on the roof, they sparkle and the game shows the message, “You’ve restored a topsy-turvy habitat!” The Habitat Dex then flips No. 027 from locked to complete, adding its description: “A row of lampions hanging upside down, but that’s fine as long as they shine brightly.”
If nothing happens after placing them, check two things. Make sure you have placed a full set of three, and make sure they are close enough together on the ceiling to register as one habitat. Spacing them too far apart is the common reason the restore does not trigger.
With the three lamps glowing overhead, the Topsy-turvy habitat is finished and permanently logged in your Habitat Dex.
