Need Recommendations

A few days ago I bought 2 Lyretail Anthias that now reside in my QT. One is active and eats well. The other lays in the corner (not hiding) in plain sight. When I throw some frozen food in he will come out to nibble, then retreat to the corner. And recommendations on how to diagnose or treat this issue?
 
Does it have adequate hiding places via PVC or caves ect? Sounds like it's not acclimating well to the QT. You need to make the fish feel secure in its surrounding. If the fish stops eating all together then I would start to worry. Doesn't sound disease related
 
There is plenty of pvc in the qt. He just kind of lies on the bottom in front of the pvc, doesn't even hide or go into it. This has been going on since I put them in there 4 days ago. He should be acclimatated by now. The other is doing fine, always out in the open and feeding.. Do you think a dose of prazipro is in order?
