Blue tangs will hide in rocks when they're new to the tank. They do this a lot when there young. They are very shy or when they come down with ich and velvet. Sometimes they tend to hide when they're stressed or nervous

its going amazing!!!, loves its new home, they were only feeding nori and frozen at the store and i even switched it to only pellets and nori. about a week ago it also got stung by the anemone and now has learned a lesson and has had no signs of infection or any injury.
