My SHY Oscars

Question
I let my 60 gallon tank cycle for a week. Then i bout my fish. I got 4 oscars. 2 albino and 2 red oscars. The petstore said that they would live together with out killing each other. everthing has been fine, the only problem is that the fish go straight to the back corner of my tank untill the coast is clear(me being gone). Is this normal or do i have a problem?

Answer
Hi Erik,
 Oscars are often very shy when they move to a new tank. This might go on for many weeks so be patient.  A warning: 60 gallons is going to be a rather tight space for these four when they get full grown.
