I have had this borbonius anthias for about 3.5 weeks now. He went through 36 hour tank transfers and 2 rounds of prazi. I don't notice any spots or diseases on him or strange behavior, but he is always hiding behind the heater and only comes out to eat. His coloration is constantly dark. I don't know if that is just his stress markings or an indicator of some other disease. Should I be concerned or is he just still settling in? He only has a few more days in QT, then I plan on introducing him to the DT, where he will likely be more comfortable.

Random FYI:
My borbonius hid in the rock work / caves for almost 2 weeks. After that, he's always out in the open and begging for food 24x7. You cannot approach the tank without him getting excited and following me. So hopefully, he just needs a little time. I feed 3-4x times a day, he eats like a goat.
