I picked up a Rose Bubble Tip Nem during Reef Currents this past weekend from Oceanlife and after the 1st day he went to hiding. He's hiding in a cave in my live rock and I was wondering if anybody knows of a way to entice him to come out of his hiding spot? He's looking good still and when the light is on his bubbles bubble up.

Yep, leave him be. He will come out over time if everything is on par. He will settle in and start moving around within a couple of weeks. If he disappears, don't move stuff around to find him. Watch the parameters and you should be fine.

Yeah, mine stayed in one place for half an year and decide to hide. Then when it come out, there are two of them. They will move around until they find a happy place.

Agreed. Make sure there are no power heads he can crawl into when he comes out. He will most likely do it at night while you are sleeping. If you have wave makers like MP40s, get covers!

Don't worry the nem will move right up against one of your favorite corals soon. Lol
