skunk cleaner shrimp hiding

My skunk cleaner shrimp has been hiding since I put him in my aquarium last week. He found a cave in my live rock, he occasionaly pokes his head out but doesnt leave. My coral beauty will flutter next to him like he wants to be cleaned and the shrimp retreates into his cave. Is he just getting used to the tank or is there something wrong? I think my salinity might be a little low for him (1.021) so i did a water change to try and raise the salinity slowly. I have iodine in the water and he eats eagerly when I put food near/in his cave. thanks
