Default Fairy Wrasse

I introduced a Fairy Wrasse to my tank about a month ago and I've seen the fish 4 times and the latest being tonight. Is this normal? When can I expect the fish to be out more often?

Usually after a while week or so they should start to come out more often. What kind of fairy wrasse is it?
