are royal dottybacks jumpers? I got one today and turned the lights of for the night, came back two hours later and cannot find him. I do not have much rock so theres only a small chance he could be hiding..Do they burrow for the night or something...if he jumped my dog probably ate him...i have a conapy too but theres an open back.

Most fish will jump, I do believe these guys are capable of jumping as well. I'd recomend getting a cover such as egg crate. However, I'm positive he's fine, mine always hides away within the rockwork/corals without a trace.

I haven't read much about these guys digging, not sure if they do. They will definitely hide at night. Mine fits into the smallest little nooks and crannies within the rockwork.
