    Well this week, I finally found where our leopard wrasse prefers to settle in for the night. I checked the time and got him on video the next night. My wife added music and put it on Youtube for you all. Especially Luna.

    So far for the last 5-6 days, it's always the same place and right around 8:40 pm. You can't exactly set your watch by his schedule. I guess I got lucky that he sleeps right in the front and center of the tank. If he did that behind the liverock somewhere, there would be no way to get it on video. Thanks for the comments all.
