Don't worry, his gonna come out sooner or later. They are far from shy from what I've seen.

I lost mine last week (you might have seen the thread, I thought he was molting). I got a new one today. Out of all the stuff I have in my tank, I think he is the coolest, I catch him running on the walls, and I had him on my hand for a while. He started to claw at my skin, diddnt really hurt, just thought it was funny. They really have no fear.

Kidninja, he will come out, mine did that for a bit too; you have an awesome nano by the way.

Kid when you feed next couple of times feed flake in the front of the tank he'll come out running after the food and snatch it up. Cool vid smoq

mine use to climb into my hand and clean under my finger nails. now that they are breeding they want nothing to do with me lol. another funny thing is my girlfriend calls them thriller because they shake there two front legs back and forth like in the MJ video thriller haha

They are just doing what they do in nature. You just happen to be the fortunate recipient of this grooming session :lol_large

Wow, neat video -- I'll have to try that with my guys.

They're fascinating in many ways... check out the square pupil in this pic (unless it's some kind of optical illusion -- I don't know).
