Yellow coris wrasse

[gareth.hubbarde]

Hi, I got this fish yesterday as a replacement for a leopard wrasse that was getting bullied by my kole tang and adorned wrasse. It was around for few mins but not seen since, been 24 hours now. Am hoping it's just buried and will Come out soon, I'm presuming it's normal?

1 of mine went missing for a while too.

It's a wrasse, they hide or bury. I've had new ones disappear 4 or more weeks.

Came out today but every time it does it gets chased by the adorned wrasse in the tank. Is this normal, will it calm down in time or should I remove the adorned wrasse?

They are related, so it's not too surprising. How big is the tank? How mature/big is adorned?

80g tank, adorned is fully grown, been in tank for about 3 months. Was pretty much fully grown when bought. The yellow coris is fully grown too. Lfs says to give it some time as long as no ripped fins etc.

If you could catch the adorned, it might help to keep it in an acclimation box for a few days...not an easy task though.
