That is USUAL behaviour with Hippo tangs but not with yellows as the yellows are more bold and agressive, but like you said all fish are different and have different attitudes, my hippo is now really agressive and rarely hides but when i first got him he hid for like 10days, I am more than sure once your yellow becomes a little more familiar with its surroundings they both will come out! They are eating well i hope though!
