Hello guys ! New to the site and this is my second time in trying out a fish hobby. Don't know what's going on here but I have a biocube 29(new model) set up for about two months now. I let my tank cycle for about two weeks wi around 30 lps of live rock, sand with snails and crabs coming in around week 1-2. Then started getting fish with the first two being a clown and some sort of long blue skinny fish with a yellow stripe. After about three days they started fighting a lot so I got to return them and got a carpenter fairy wrasse along with my fav a green spotted mandarin. I've had them both around a month now and can't ever get the wrasse to come out. I was told to try and add another wrasse and got a flasher wrasse. The carpenter won't come out. Not even during feeding time. The other two are very active while the carpenter just hides under rock in the very back. I maintain water changes frequently and everything else seems fine. What's going on?
 
Here are some pics of my set up...

My wrasse would hide constantly. Would go for days without seeing the darn thing. After about six months in the tank, it would start coming out more and more. Weird little buggers sometimes.
