So in the 10 years I’ve been in this hobby I’ve never experienced this before. I had a hippo and a wrasse that was periodically hide, but mainly would swim where I could see. I added two more tangs which ware generally super personable about three months ago.

No matter what I do time in front of the tank feedings etc they all hide the entire time I’m around. When I feed I have to leave and then they shoot out grab a bite and hide. Any suggestions?
