puffer always hiding, never swimming about

I've had a small porcupine puffer for over 2 wks. he's eating great, eating krill and silversides (mainly krill. doesn't seem to favor the silversides too much.) soaked in extreme garlic. however, he never really swims about at all. he eats, then goes back and perches or wedges himself between some frogspawn branches and stays there. Anyone else had one that just didn't swim around? he'll eat out of my hand or forceps, but then goes right back to his hiding place.
