Hello everyone I recently got a BTS, we've had him for a month or so and we've noticed that he likes to dig in the corners of his tank, mainly where his rock water pool is and dig all the way down to the bottom of his tank, i've noticed him do this in a way other areas too and I'm just curious on why he does this and if anyone else's BTS does this? He will move the rocks and dig at them like how a dog would dig it's very cute to see! I've also noticed he likes to do pull ups to reach the middle of his stick in his tank! He can reach it on either sides I guess he just likes the physical challenge haha.

Digging is natural behavior. Bark type substrates or mulch is a good choice.
