The irr sharks will do that for a while. They are very nervoues fish. Eventually they will swim out front as they mature.

One trick I used was to turn out all the lights except the fishtanks and sit a little away from the tank...they then came out and swam a bit.

I think if you buy really young ones they won't have a problem coming out if there is about 3 of them, but that is just what I've had. The other 2 have died that I have but they always were out front swimming no matter what, even at night. I could feed them tubifex worms from my hand. Active fish. They will probably get used to there environment and do the same. Good luck.
