Lol, Chris, I wasn't even sure he would be able to fit through that hole, let alone fall asleep in it.

Maybe they sleep there when you're not looking hadla?

i only see them sleep if its late and the room is dark. turn on the tank light for a quick look around and theyre resting/'sleeping' on leaves. if you leave the light on too long, theyll 'wake up' lol.
