I realize that dats all hide when they are first introduced to a new tank, but my 3 inch NTT has only hid and hasn't come out since I realized him from the bag. As for my 2 IT's I bought yesterday they come out more when the lights are off. I sthis normal for NTT's? He is the biggest dat in the tank.

yes mines very timid too and hes been in the tank for about a week now I'm hopping he comes out soon
Yea I mean he was fine in the tank at LFS, but when he got introduced in my tank with the other 5 IT's, he is timid. I have also noticed that the 3 ITs that I ha din there before don't come out as much either. Did you have this problem too?
Yes, its just that hes not used to his surrounding and from what I hear they should come out after about 3-4 weeks, as for the fish following his example and hiding they must jsu the playing follow the leader with the biggest dat

Yea I guess I see what your saying it's just that I want to get them eating frozen shrimp and pellets asap, and them hiding doesn't help haha.
My big one that ive got in the 60g hides most of the time but hopefully when i put the 6 little ones in he will come out more.

I've had mine for 4 months now. They still hide all the time even when it's feeding time. Most of the time when you look at my tank it looks like I'm keeping wood and rocks as pets
you could also try adding a school of dither fish. at first my ntt's where skittish but when i added my ornate and silver dollars they arent as scared. whenever my birchir swims to the top of the tank they all follow it. check out my previous threads and u can see them swimming with and without lights on. dimmer lighting helps too.
