exactly shev, electric fields they emit will tell them they are hidden, even though you can see them.

Yeah I had a lot of areas for hiding so he was happy, his favorite thing was this HUGE rock thingy hehe well it was hollow inside and there was a big hole in the back, he would swim right in and chill until he felt like coming out!

I saw one of those really big ones once. It was a smoky gray color instead of black, and it was easy to see how it got the name "ghost." It was downright freaky looking.

Well, Dan, it sounds like you got lucky and got a good one. Congrats!
