Sounds like it could be normal agresssive behavior. Or not but I can’t tell you anything based off that description. Get a pic of him in the tank tomorrow.
I will . For now I cover the tank up and let him settle . No light . No feed .
How long it take for the fh to settle down and be active ?
I saw his poop kinda purple red . Or light red . Can I change the water or it will shock him ?

Can take anywhere from a couple days - a couple weeks to fully settle. I would just leave him alone for the most part for the first few days with the lights off. Only come right up to the tank when you are going to feed so he can quickly associate you with getting fed. Reddish poop is just fine. Change the water if it needs to be changed (if nitrates are 20+ppm).
I’ll specify. You shouldn’t cover up the tank. He needs to get comfortable with what’s around the tank/the room he’s in before he gets comfortable with you. Just try not to go right up to the tank unless to feed him.
what wrong with my fish . Have have bunch of white stuff stick to his body . It’s from salt I add or stability condition ?
it’s been 2 day and today first time I feed him and he eat . I crank up the heat little bit after talk to Julia . After eat he not hiding . He just start to looking for something . Like look for bubble

Looks like white spot to me but could do with a better image of him to tell for certain.
Looks like white spot to me. The stress of been shipped and handled could of caused it. It could of already started befor hand as I'm not sure how long white spot takes to become visible after the fish is infected.
You can raise your temp and add salt that will help speed up the life cycle and make it easier to kill. But in his state I would consider medication if you have it or can get it.
