My clowns have been doing that every since about 1 week plus after introduction into the tank...Now already 4 months le...they are still doing the same thing together...haha...I think they are just paired up most probably...they keep using their tail and wager to push the sand aside until got a hole then like their territory...no other fish also will like that one...cos they are the first fishes i got...As long as they are feeding fine and healthy, then shouldn't be a problem...

I think they are just arranging their home the way they like it. My maroon clown pair also pushes rocks away when I put the rocks in a place that the clowns don't like. I've seen my 2.5inch clown push a rock off a ledge, and the rock is about 1kg!

forced me to start a cheapo FOWLR with partial bare-bottom
