Yes, nothing unusual.
They like to dig, some more than others.
Some claim a territory more than others.

yup mine did it too when I had sand in the tank... its normal.

Put a pot or make a cave in that corner. That might stop your front from doing this

He's just looking to make a home for himself. You'll notice that dominant male African cichlids often do this and they will keep the area clean of debris since that will be a spawning area in the future if there are females around.
If there aren't any other fish of the same kind around, it's just their way of creating a territory for themselves. Hope that helps!
