"moves little" would be perfectly normal. I don't think pink colour is normal, but without a photo it's very difficult to say.

Mixing banjos with Loricariidae should be fine.

Slight color changes can also be normal prior to shedding their skin. If the other Loricariids in the tank are on the pushy side, you may want to think twice. Please keep an eye on the behavior. Banjos are very shy species, in general.
Thanks,
