Just wondering, but does anybody elses trigger blow sand all over their live rock...The waterscape now looks like a sand dune and less like rockwork.
 
I don't keep sand with my triggers for that exact reason. Triggers blow jets of water into the sand to irritate the sand and show any prey items hiding beneath. He must thing there is something good in the substrate :). It is EXTREMELY normal, typical trigger behavior. Nothing out of the ordinary. Hope this helps.
 
Yep, they also pick up rocks and carry them around the tank if they are a big trigger :P

Once your trigger gets big, don't be suprised if you find your tank re-arranged one day! ;)
