Origami Gourami
Fish Fanatic
I spent ages last night trying to locate the two little fellas, no a sight anywhere. Not behind plants, up on the floating leaves, hiding in the shadows, doing a few lengths in the current; nowhere to be seen. 
If anybody has a Fluval 200-400 they'll be familiar with the suction cup bracket that fits to the glass. Well, I spied what looked suspiciously like a tiny webbed hand peeking out. I moved the lid of the tank back and shone a small torch light down the top of the bracket - to find two little faces and assorted wriggly limbs snuggled in the hollow of the bracket!
Since then I have seen them standing up with their noses out of the water taking in the morning air from this new cubby hole! They also like to have a few worms plopped over their den, as they can tuck in without any pesky bettas or red tail piggies stealing it all!
I wish they'd frequent somewhere a little more prominent and aesthetically pleasing, but there we go!
Thankfully they still come out occassionally for an explore and a swim.
I just have to be ultra careful about moving the filter from now on. They don't go out of their way to make life easy...!

But you sure know how to startle a mod with the title of a thread.
