Stealth Petrocolas

I had a couple in a tank that I wanted to move into another tank with some others Petros but I couldn't find them. I looked all over while doing water changes and no Petros.  huh

Tonight while feeding I noticed one of them. I watched it very closely to see where he went. He went under a large piece  of driftwood that I had checked previously while looking for them. ???

I picked up the driftwood and did not see the fish. I put the driftwood down and a few minutes later it came back out. When he went back quickly under I picked the driftwood again.

This time I examined it even more closely, out of the water. It was then that I noticed a hole in the wood. In the hole I saw the tails of the two Petrocolas.  w!w

It looks like they dug themselves a nice hole in that driftwood. I will now wait to move them along with their wood and the three others into their own tank. I am looking at a 40b for the 5 of them.  wfwf
