digging

|| Hau kolas..quick question..I've got an unidentified small
|| cichlid..about 3" long, dark grey body with 5 darker grey vertical
|| stripes and black fins (I picked it up as a juvenille from an
|| "assorted tank" about a year and a half ago when in my ignorance
|| about compatabilites etc. and have never seen it again to ID. the
|| fish, due to severe aggression when placed with apparently any other
|| cichlids, lives by itself in a 10 gallon unplanted tank. It has a
|| few small caves in the tank and is pretty much obsessive that no
|| gravel substrate can be in these caves. Sometimes it will carry a
|| mouthful of pebbles only outside the cave and deposit them, others
|| it will swim around and dump them at varying heights. Different
|| species dig for various reasons..but is the fish simply bored,
|| trying to entertain itself? The only tankmates it will tolerate are
|| snails, and they can't be much fun heh..until it finds a way to
|| kill them too, then it'll be a party Not a big concern, just
|| curious. Any ideas? TIA
