Keep your hands out of the tank for now. If you move stuff around it will only freak them out that much more. It might hide for a few days but it will eventually get hungry.

Feed it at night, after the lights have been out a while. Use a low wattage red light for observation. If it is an O. mercatoris you might see it making a pose with its front arms wrapped up over its head between its eyes. This might be filter feeding related behavior so squirting some cyclopseeze in isn't a bad idea.
