Hello how are you?
My leopard wrasse disappeared. I haven't seen him in 4 days. I looked on the floor around the aquarium and couldn't find it.
Any ideas? Can it be buried for so many days?

Did you just get it? When first introduced, leopard wrasse are known to spent up to 2 weeks buried before being comfortable enough to emerge

Was it eating during the 4 days you’ve seen it?

Thanks for your help.
The aquarium has been there for more than 3 years, and the wrasse has been there for 2 years.
He swam perfectly, is not shy and eats like a beast.
I moved furniture and couldn't find it on the floor.
In these 4 days, I didn't see any traces of him, it's like he was abducted...
