I have a Lake Malawi tank with 6 Cichlids in it

2 Red Top Zebras
2 Blue Dolphins
2 Electric Yellows
2 Brisstlenose Catfish

I'm pretty sure I have 1 male and 1 female of each.

My question is when I'm cleaning the gravel in the tank should I be moving the rocks and bogwood around so that I can get inside the caves that have been formed by rock placement or will this screw up the fish territories. Could this start to cause agression problems as after each weekly clean they would have to fight for new territories again. I did lift some rocks last time I cleaned the gravel and got lots of "Fish Poo" from in the covered areas and a like.

As always cheers in advance for any advice.
