How do i get my fish to come out and eat?

[Jaysreefworld]

Ive been messing with my aqua scape alot and I think I scared him cause he won't come out... Is there such thing as having too many hiding places? Cause if so I think I do

Is it a new fish? What type? If your fish isnt happy in his new home, he will hide weather there are hiding places or not.

Fish are surprising on how long they can go without food. Give him some time and he should come out, once he is out try feeding something tasty like mysis or soak pellets in the garlic solution available at most reef shops. Don't try keep feeding it and only small amounts so you don't foul up your water.
