New fish maybe lost!

[fakename]

I would not give up yet. My yellow goby hid for weeks before coming out. Now he is a very visable fish in my tank!! Hopefully your fish is just hiding!
Also, these little gobies seem to do better in moderate to low flow areas. If you have a very high flow tank your goby might come out if you turn off all the flow.....
Good luck,
Aaron

all of my gobies come out whenever they want. Usually when I am not looking though. Chances are it is still in there and you will see it a few weeks or a month or so down the road.

Are there any piles of sand, or mounds? We got 2 together & one disapeared right away, must have jumped. Wish I could catch the other one now as he is a mountain builder.

Thank all for the encouraging words. Checked on him a few minutes ago and I finally saw his head stick out of a tiny hole in the live rock. The hole was no bigger than your pinky finger.

What a relief. Now I hope he will come out to eat eventually.

Thanks all.

You were right, he was hiding.

Yes it's moderate flow at best. I may upgrade later when I get more experience and put corals. (FOWLR)

Thanks again
