Just got a RBTA yesterday and this is what it has decided to do! I noticed it was a bit bigger when the light were off/ clown was hosting. Its in some crevice and it was much larger (about 3") in its old tank. Thoughts? Should I be concerned?

Bubbles look inflated which means it is somewhat happy, it is still trying to acclimate to your tank and lights. Mine latest has been in my tank for about 2 weeks and still hasn't found his spot yet.

just leave this guy alone. the more you poke and pry on it, the more it will be stressed and then die. this rbta will find its home where its most comfortable, which may even be a spot where you can't see it. they'll find a spot and stay there awhile and then eventually move. it may be weeks or months...but it will move around. just leave it alone.
