Hi -- The other day I added a red coris to my tank, and I'm somewhat perturbed. For $25 bucks, I got what I thought would be a nice fish to watch (still a juvie, all orange with white). I didn't find out until later that the little guy likes to borrow like a chipmunk. And I don't mean snuggle into the sand -- I mean completely out of sight for (what seems like) days on end. I rustle him out every once in a while to make sure he's still alive, and he swims around, gets a snack, and then hides out again after 30 minutes.
Is this what I can expect from him? How often do they eat? And should I be poking around, forcing him out? Or will that stunt his growth or something?
Any advice, please. Thanks.
