i have a colony of Cobalt Blue Zebra (Metriaclima callainos), i have had them for about 1 month now and they are still not used to me being around them. eg: when i walk in the room they all hide in the rocks! what is the best way to make them feel at home?

I've noticed that my m.callainos are the most shy species in my tank. They usually hide when I first come in the room or walk by the tank, however, if I sit quietly in front of the tank for a few minutes they'll come out. I've spent a lot of time sitting in front of the tank and then slowly moving and have gotten them more used to me. Some species are just more shy than others, and you'll have to be very patient and spend a lot of time with them.
