Disappearing fish..?? Houdini..??

I purchased a rather large Percula clown from my LFS yesterday afternoon... came home, floated and acclimated the fish... after adding the fish to my tank, I walked away to throw the bags away and came back to not find the fish anywhere...!!!! I have a pretty LR packed 25 gallon... I figured the fish was hiding and didnt worry much about it... a few hours later I got worried and started look EVERYWHERE and still have not seen the fish... I have looked through the entire tank and through the entire house to make sure it didnt jump out of the tank... I even went through the trash can to make sure I didnt throw him away in the plastic bag he came in... I still didnt see it this morning and its really starting to bother me... Has anyone else had a disappearing fish..?? Thanks...
