powder brown tang

got a pbt last week n has been doing great.. today i got home n he looked stuck between my overflow tube n the glass. i had lr there n have no idea how he even got in the corner... anyway i moved smoe rocks n got him out but scince then he keeps burying his face in the rocks n almost looks like hes stuck again but can tell hes not... is this smoething i should be concerend with or is he just stressed from the first stuck... up untill this he was swimming all over my tank.... am just worried.. thanks

 

Moved to ------ tropical fish.

Bump for those with tang experience.

 

I work at Premium Aquatics and I see this sometimes with fish newly added to the tanks, especially hippo tangs. I would only worry if it begins to not eat and continues to do it for a long time.

 

most likely just getting used to the tank, i wouldnt be overly worried yet.
my blue hippo tang stuck its head in rocks for the first few weeks, i guess it figured if it couldnt see anything, it thought it was hidden. To bad the rest of his body was hanging out in the open lol

 

I had a Powder Blue Tang that died about a year ago when he stuck his head in between some rockwork poor guy.

 

thanks. he's still doing it now... funny thing is he was swimming all over the tank for a week happy go lucky..... that's why i thought kinda strange..
