I'd check your water params first. If those are good, maybe try adding more plants or hiding spots. They might just feel exposed.

Mine were skittish at first too, but they settled in after a few weeks. Maybe give 'em more time? Also, what's your lighting like? Too bright can stress 'em out.

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I'll try adding more plants and see if that helps. If not, might have to switch to a different species.
