It will take some time to adjust...do you have plenty of foliage for him to feel hidden in....real or fake plants are a must...preferably non-toxic real plants.

Make sure you check a good breeder [like the ads at the top of the page]care sheet.See if you have it set up properly.

Make sure you are not spraying him to much directly. while he does need water to drink remember humidity is the amount of water in the air, not to be confused with keeping everything wet all the time. Other than that I would double check that everything is right and leave him along. Only bother him when necessary for feeding and misting for a couple of days, keeping a close eye on him then. I had a baby jacksons that was like that.
