Exquisite Wrasse Cocoon (or dead)

Saturday afternoon I picked up an Exquisite Wrasse, which I drip acclimated.  The rest of the day the fish swam around and looked fine.  On Sunday, the wrasse hid in the rocks all day, which is normal for new fish.  Today I found him laying on the bottom.  I'm really surprised he didn't make it.  I've heard of wrasses that look dead, but instead are in a mucus cocoon.  I don't see his gills moving.  Dead or Cocoon?
