blue throat trigger hiding, for a week

[mwood]

I bought a healthy blue throat trigger a week ago. He has been very timid and wonââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢t come out of his hole in the rock if anyone is in the room. I donââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢t think he has been eating, so I put a silverside in a vegi-clip next to his hiding place. The siverside was gone after a day, but I donââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢t know that it was him that ate it. Is there anything I can do for him?

perfectly normal for these guys....just make sure it gets some food.......try mysis.

How long should I expect him to keep hiding?

Mine did it for about a week (although he did come out to eat from day one). He's still a bit shy even a few months

mine is only out for about 20% off the time the lights are on. i have had him for 4 months. before last month he would only be out less than 5% of the time, be patient they are timid fish.
