My girlfriend got a new nem yesterday, acclimated it and then put it in her tank near a rock on the sandbed. It promptly slid under a small ledge on the rock and has been hiding ever since. Is this anything to worry about?

Nothing to worry about, I rescaped my tank yesterday put it in one spot it was very happy then overnight it's moved into a cave where it gets zero light
 
Ok, I guess it will just move back out when it's comfortable?

Yea, whenever I got mine he hid out in a cave getting no light for like 2 weeks, now he is very happy and is stationary.
