Default goldfish always hidding

Hi all ,

My LionHEAD goldfish that i just bought 6 day ago always hidding
behind the plants.
However , it come out if when foods is added in the tanks.
Other LionHEAD goldfish are OK.

Any suggestion to cure this ?

My setup -
My pH is 6 to 7 . KH is 10 . User SeaChem to remove ammonia . Using
power filter and mechnanical filter . Add biological items in the
mechanical filter.

Thanks

Hi, one of my new ryukins hid for about 10 days and refused to eat, Now he's
first to the top at feeding time and is great friends with the others. (The
other one, established himself as "boss fish" as soon as he went in the
tank!)

Give him a few more days, he's been taken away from the "school" that he was
used to in the shop, its all a bit overwhelming for a little creature. Some
are naturally shyer than others just like us.

If it goes on for a real long time though, it might indicate he's poorly.
