FoxFace question

I've had this foxface for about a week now and it still hasn't settled. It eats, swims, and no problems with the other fish. I chose it because it was a bright yellow but since its been in my tank it hasn't come out of camoflage mode, even when its swimming around. The only fish it is housed with is 2 damsels, and a coral beauty. Could it be that it is just real skiddish, or is it because there is a lot of hiding spots and the tank I got it out of just had sand. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I assume it is in the 75 gallon. As long as it is eating and swimming around I would not be too concerned yet. Give it a little more time to settle in. Double check your water parameters to see that everything is in line and do a water change if anything looks off.
 
Sometimes foxfaces take a bit of time to adjust, but since it's eating, it should be fine. Just be sure the damsels or the CB aren't picking on it.
