Why don't you superglue your existing rocks together so that they form "caves" but can't topple? Also, put them on the glass and spread the gravel AROUND them so that they won't fall if the Africans try to dig underneath them.

VDAWGS22,
The large size stone has one 3" entrance and three 1/2" holes. All the other size stones just have the entrance hole.

i bought some 4 inch pvc cut up the edges to look fancy, loaded them up with silicone and smeared fine gravel and sand on them, they look great and my fish love them, in fact i have 2 pairs that lay eggs in them

That's the one. The three holes are on the sides not visible in the picture. I bought two and they both have the three 1/2' holes.
A Frontosa has made the large cave his home. I have four Fronts mixed in with relatively peaceful cichlids. However, the Fronts are shy and like to hang out in a secure place. My smallest Front has claimed a small cave about a year ago.
I ordered two more large caves from Kens Fish for the other two Fronts.

I think the OP was looking for caves rather than rock formations. The difference to me is like comparing a car port to a garage.
In each tank I have some fish that swim constantly in open space, some that hang around structures, and others that like to hide in a secure place that has a single opening just big enough for them to enter.
In one tank; two peacocks, Bristlenose Pleco, and a school of clown loaches hide in caves.
Another tank it's the Spotted Raphael and a peacock taking up residence. I also have a Protomelas steveni (Taiwan Reef) who would probably move into a large cave if I had one in the tank. He's always trying to hide from the Aulonocara Firefish.
In the 150G it's the Frontosa and two Bristlenose Plecos who prefer cave life.
