Where's my wrasse

[karenvas2]

This past weekend, I added two fish to my 55 gallon tank. A gold-headed sleeper goby and a red headed Solon fairy wrasses. Both went into hiding, but te goby has resurfaced. At least I know it's there because sand covers my corals everyday. Lol. The wrasse on te other hand has not been seen. Should I just wait it out or should I try something to coax it out? I have fed the tank several times since then. I will try shrimp with garlic today. Any advice?

What other fish are in your tank, and is the tank completely covered?

Different genus, different behavior. Cirrhilabrus do NOT bury in the sand.

Check behind/under the tank and check the overflow
