Hi! Is it possible to provide for us you water parameters? (ie. water temp, pH, amonia, nitrites, nitrates, etc) What size tank? What are the other tank mates (I see the fish you have posted above in your signature but are all of these in the same tank)? As much information as possible about the conditions of the tank will help everyone try to help you. Do you have any pictures?

Most of the fish in the above signature water is 80%RO and 20%tap water, large fluval filter filtered through floss, Sponges, biomax in two compartments and peat.

I think some individuals take longer to settle than others. Not much you can do about that other than have patience.
