Just give him some time to settle in. I don't know if potatoes are good - try cucumber and sinking pellets. Sometimes fish takes days or weeks to settle in and become active.

What species are they?

Plecs will often hide, some species are very rarely seen and the running/scurrying away when you go by the tank is natural.

They may be 2 different species. Some plecs are nocturnal and hide /sleep all day . My L001 does this.A photo of your plecs would help in identifying them so their correct diet and habits can be confirmed.
