Will my GBTA ever settle in?

[Lynnmw1208]

I got a GBTA about a week and a half ago and this thing just cannot stay put. It has moved and moved and moved and can't seem to find a place it likes. I started by putting it rather low in the aquarium on a low rock and it has moved from there to the highest point and now it's upside down in a shady spot. It deflates and re-inflates every day and seems to poop a lot (looks like a brown pellet) foot is still a nice purple color.

My tank is 10 months old and very stable. I run 8 T-5s across 72" of tank (4 on each side, ATI bulbs). I use 2x koralia evo 1400s for flow alternating with the hydor smartwave (they are covered with foam just in case).

alk: 7.3 dkh (dosing to get up to 8)
ca:470
mag:1520
nitrate: 0.75
phosphate: 0.06
salinity: 1.025
temp: 77-78
I run GFO and carbon

Did you light acclimate it? What lighting was it under where you got it?

It was under halides in the store and I have T-5 so I thought putting it low in my tank would have been enough. they had way more light on it in the store.

Just give it time to acclimate to your system. He may be reacting to your Nitrates as well even though they are not high.
