New Regal Won't Come And Play! :(

[lewiss]

After weeks of nagging my folks to take a regal in if I grow one up, for my benefit obv!! They accepted so I bought one yesterday! But she's been sulking in my trumpets since being added. She's been in there a day an a half and not even attempted to explore. She is also putting her dorsel up a lot of the time and looks unhappy. Water quality is very good and the wrasse I added at the same time is looking happy. Any ideas? My last regal was out straight away. This one is tiny, about an inch long!
