I know, I thought he had died in a tank overheat 3 summers before. I was totally shocked on moving day when he was hanging out in the tank after I'd taken all the rock in. And devastated when he died only a few hours later. Very cryptic fish. You'll also find that with your pygmy hawk. I had one of those as well, I had previously kept him in my nano tank and decided to move him into my 90gallon. Didn't see him for a couple of weeks and thought maybe he didnt' make it but about 2 weeks later there he was, cranky as ever, flipping me the bird from his hidey hole. As he got more comfortable he would spend more time out in the open so I saw him more often. He bit it in the tank move too. *sigh*
