When my mbuna are in the 2" to 4" range they tend to do this as well. I think that must be ideal size and age for them to enjoy the "filter game" as we call it. Once they get bigger I find they are less interested (sadly).

My clown loaches would give it everything they had to try and swim in the filter outlet. Must think there is a food stash in there or something. Entertaining though.

My Saulosi also love it when I do a water change especially when I add the new water! Very Happy
