Give it some place to hide where it can feel comfortable like a flower pot turned upside down with a little small opening made by cracking and shipping away the rim so it's just small enough for it to fit through. This tricks has work for me in calming down the Uro. Or you can find something that can be turned into dark hiding place for it. They will use it if you provide them with one. Mine spends an awful lots of time hiding and only come out to eat once in a while.

And lastly like Eltoro said make sure the temperature is hot enough because this species do well with very high temperature. Mine are more active when the temperature requirements are met. No guessing so use a digital thermometer to measure the temperature.
