Hi gregor.I don't know why Nemo sleeps on top of his hide.But it is normal for them not wanting to sleep in there hide.Ususally they like to burrow down in to the mulch.How deep is your mulch ? do you have enough mulch in the enclosure for him to burrow in there ? maybe the hide is to small for him.What kind of hide do you use ? do you have some pictures of your enclosrue ?

Mine sleeps in the hide when it wants to. Ive noticed as he becomes more comfortable with me he stays out alot more.

I dont think its a problem though.
