Not a complete shock for irredescent shark. They are either freaked loonies charging round banging into everything as though they have no eyesight or “boring” recluses in my book. If you want a swimmy fish then in my opinion I’m afraid you should have bought a Paroon.

If the water is good, I'd guess something scares them, perhaps some other animals of land or air try to get them.
