Seriously cool. I had no idea. Is it just the black leopard that does that, or do other wrasses do the same?

Great vid Brett

Whether planned or sheer luck, I love it

[lastlight]

All leopards do and possibly others. Can't recall if my old melanarus did but I don't think so.

As for the video I knew roughly when she gets up but I got lucky. Had only sat down and started filming a random patch of sand for less than a minute.

Coris wrasse and fairy wrasse do also

Mhmm, a likely story

Honestly though, I'd love to even 'see' my coris go to bed, nevermind seeing him come out in the morning

Great shot dude

I've got an orange back fairy so you're saying he sleeps in the sand as well? Totally had no idea I'm going to watch the tank tomorrow evening and see! Forgot about the coris. I had one and yes he def did bury himself too. It's pretty easy to see them go in if you happen to be around the tank to see the plume of sand go up when they dive. My meleagris is so small though that her rip entry never gives her away.

And Greg that coris is going to totally renovate that little tank of yours as it grows. You're housing a future beast there.

Not sure of all fairy wrasses. My lineatus and red margin wrasses did

Awesome video! It's interesting littl things like that which make this hobbby so attractive to me.

most fairy wrasses sleep in the rocks and spin a cocoon

[Proteus]

I knew parrot fish did that but not wrasse. Cool though
