Question - I got 4 females yesterday. They were all were previously QTd together in a smaller tank. When introduced to the new tank, 3 of them are all grouped together. There is a single one that would meet with the group and do its own thing, or swim off with some other fish.

Now the lone wolf if hiding under a rock. Is this normal Anthia behavior, or is it potentially have something wrong with it? Physically it looks fine.

All 4 ate fine yesterday, although now just the 3 are - and the single one is hiding from the world (or at least my Kole tang).

I could remove some of the rock work its under and try and get it out, but I think that will cause more shock.
As a side note, there is almost 0 chance I would be able to actually capture it and inspect. They are so fast and rock work in my tank would make it diffcult. If I needed to, I would need to trap it.
