I just purchased 2 congo tetras from the lfs and they appear stressed out. All the common questions are answered and are not an issue, (i.e. tank size, tankmates, acclimation, etc.) I had one congo tet in there already which never seemed stressed out. I mean stressed out by the black mustache and now their scales are turning dark. Anybody know what to do? I've had them in there for about 3 hours and they're getting worse. I added freshwater salt to help about 10 minutes ago. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Turn the lights out and give it time.
Make sure there's hiding spots.
