i dont know what to do...
I have not seen my royal gramma in two days... I got him monday and last seen him tuesday. He hides in a hollow peice of artificial coral. Should I try to pick it up and shake it around or what?
will this stress the other fish too much or will it cause him to swim deep inside and get stuck??? :help:

Look around on the ground, he may have jumped. look in the sump he may have went in there, overflow boxes. Give him time. DO NOT TEAR apart the tank looking. You will stir everything up. Not good. When he is hungry, he will come out. Did you QT him first?

ITs stress... thats all.. normal of any new fish.
I just got a foxface on Wednesday, and he only comes out to eat. Hidig the rest of the time. Most new fish act that way.

Why would you want to do that? Hes just new, shy and stressed! He will come out when he wants to and it should be under his terms. If he swam in there he can swim out of there!
