I got this sohal and purple tang the other day from my lfs it just had arrived from a shipment and from the bag that the fish came in i took it and put it in my tank, i am concerned of everytime they see a glimpse of them they sprint in the rocks i throw pellets they eat and i tie alage on a small rock and they munch on it i saw them throw my window but whenever i come ot enter they hide they have been in my system for 2 days now is this normal or should i be worried.
 
They're swimming normally and eating - both of which are good signs. It will probably take them a bit of time to get used to your presence. This is fairly normal; 8 months on I still have fish that hide in the rocks (tangs included) when I approach the glass. Unless I'm carrying food...

If you have an acclimate setting on your lights you can always try that for a few days, ie: ramp your lights down to 50% and then slowly return to normal.
