landscaping chiclids

[nitrous]

well in my tank i have a terrocota pot in the corner and to the right a potted plant and then to the right of that a rock and i guess my 1 blue chiclid doesnt like what i did with the tank bc last night i was watching him tank the gravel 1 by 1 with his mouth out from under the pot to a big pile between the rock and then he will sit it in and try it out and then keep doing this. i guess he is just making it home for him and having a place to sleep

Your answer can be found in here. Why do cichlids dig?

He will keep moving around the substrate. Ours uproot plants and move the sand to their liking. We can level the sand on Monday and by Tuesday afternoon they have hit glass, and that's through 5 inches of sand.
