In Response To: Clown loach activity (loach lover)

I have not seen that type of pebble moving activity in my Clowns. Althoug my cichlids are constantly digging down to the glass bottom. However, I was talking to a lady in my local Petsm*rt who also keeps clowns. She said her Clowns have "adopted" a snail. If the snail is in a favorite resting place, her "Loach motel" rock for examplem, they will pick up the snail and move it to another location. She said they killed and ate all the other snails except this one. The way she descibed the moving process sounds just like how your clowns are moving pebbles.
