So we got a Royal Gramma about 3 weeks ago....shouldn't have named it. I am sure that is what did this haha. this is in my 29g Biocube.
He has been out and about for 3 weeks eating and doing his thing. This last week he started coming out to greet me before I dropped the food in. My clowns didn't seem to mind him or chase him around at all. They are my only fish in the tank.
Friday he disappeared though. Haven't seen the body, haven't seen an ammonia spike. Checked all the back chambers and the floor around my tank. Cant find him.
I added a drop of garlic to my reef frenzy today to try and entice him out but no luck.
Is it normal for a Royal Gramma to go MIA like this or is he likely dead? Are they known to hide for multiple days? I dont have hermits but I do have Nassarious snails that might have ate him. But he was eating and seemed to be acting normal. Clowns are still doing there usual. Big ol pigs.
