False leopard wrasse sand

[Krully]

I just got a false leopard wrasse from my LFS. He was in pretty bad shape last week but they kept him and he seems to have recovered. They told me my sand was okay for him but I’m a bit concerned, it’s not crushed coral but it’s not fine sand either, it’s about 2-3mm grains I’d say? Can he still bury?
Last night he tried to bury because I saw plenty of dirt in suspension in the tank. I didn’t see him this morning and figured he was burrowed and now he’s swimming in the tank. Do I need to add finer sand ASAP? Do I keep monitoring him? He doesn’t seem stressed at all, tank mates are very very chill, he’s just exploring the tank.
I joined a bad morning picture, sorry for the dirty glass.

I have several sand burying wrasse including three leopards and I use 3mm sand and they have no issues.

They get their days and nights mixed up and need time to adjust.

Yeah I figured it was weird he couldn't bury because the spot he was hanging around had plenty of sand and it's not THAT big, I'll keep my eye on him for the next few days. Thanks!
