Leopard wrasse disappeared??

[Marinebionerd]

Hey guys!!! I just got a new leopard wrasse yesterday. I drip acclimated him for about 30 minutes and put him in. What surprised me was that he didn't immediately hide. In fact he was swimming around. Anyway the night I got him he just started hiding and I've only seen him once dart around. What's your thoughts???

Perfectly normal for a leopard wrasse. It will need to adjust to a new lighting schedule and pace of activity.

They will hide under the sand for a few days till they get adjusted. They also sleep under the sand. Dont try and find him.

I've lost newly acclimated wrasses for weeks before they come back out. No need to be worried it should come back out when it's more adjusted.
