Do wrasses hide
I got a wrasse thats hidding today. i know at night she goes and hides to sleep, but during the day is that normal. She's been in the tank for 2 weeks now. And was in complete accord with the clowns. I introduced a bullet goby about 4 days ago and she was fine with it. I'm thinking sickness, but she seemed ok yesterday. Unless its a normal behavior on their part. Can anyone help. thanks.

From google.....
Other Common Names Red Head Solon Fairy Wrasse, Tricolor Fairy Wrasse, Red-eyed Faiy Wrasse, Indo-Labrid Red Head Fairy Wrasse, Solar Fairy Wrasse.
I am sorry I have never owned one of those so, I do not know. Hopefully someone else will have an idea.

I'm with Mr.Peanut never had one of these Wrasse. But if it is anything like my Canary it hides if you get to close to the tank(he mainly hides behind a piece of lr and looks @ you from the corner of a eye) but mine comes out when ready to eat.

They are and also,if your tank isn't grounded,it could be from stray voltage.

They do hide occasionally. At least my wrasses do.
