skittish frilled

Hi all
My frilled is about 6mts old now (Thanks James!!) and he's quite skittish. When I got him he was handable (but squirmy) and didn't frill or anything. I pretty much left him alone for about 3 weeks cause I wasn't seeing him eat and didn't want to stress him out.
I've been handling him daily for the past few months (skip some days) and he's always extremely squirmy, trying to get away, and sometimes frilling (but never biting or attempting to do so). I have to chase him around the tank (40 gal breeder) to get him out.
Do I just go on handling him or does anyone have any secret tips??
Thanks
