HI, few changes on my 4' 240ltr. The Auritus were chasing all the Cyps away and getting territorial on the rocks. Moved on some Cyps and kept 10 and moved them in with the Multies. I also had to remove all the rocks to catch the Cyps. Upshot was a very bare looking tank.

Auritus chomping Mysis

Anyways I had some plastic pipe left over, had made some small caves in the Tropheus tank which they seem to enjoy.

Set to work and cut the pipe into roughly 12" lengths...

Sanded off the rough crap from the edges and gave them a good wash and rinse...

Covered the pipes over with the rocks and sand, the dwarf comps were usually left side and the auritus on the right, will be interesting to see how things pan out.
Not the best pics. but I'll post a wee vid. up in a few days time when the tank all clear and the auritus will have moved all the sand again.....
