Just got one this morning and entered him into tank..have not seen him since
how long will he hide?
anyone with experience with these fish could tell me?

and is it normal?

the other fish I put into tank never hide at all

Royal Gramma are a deepwater fish that have to adjust to bright lights. Do you have alot of rockwork, they love to hide/hover in caves. Give him some time, he will come out.
