Why is my fish stacking rocks?

So I have a freshwater aquarium and starting yesterday one of my fish decided to start randomly stacking rocks in one pile. He's the only one doing it, and he's taking the rocks from the same place and then stacking them in a single pile at the front of the tank. I've had my fish for over a year and none of them have ever done this before. I also haven't recently changed or added anything to the tank. He just started doing it for no reason what so ever....Anyone have any clue why?

Why are some guppy fry growing much larger and faster than others?

I only have 5 fry in a 10 gallon tank with a pleco as the only tankmate. 1 of the fry is much much larger than the rest. Another one is also bigger but not as big as the first one. The other 3, at 2 months old, are probably small enough to get eaten by an adult guppy still. I don't know how big a cm or a mm is compared to an inch but the big one is less than 1 inch (maybe 3/4"?). The small ones are maybe about 1/4". Why the great disparity in growth? They all seem healthy and swim fine, etc. They all seem to get to eat when I feed them. I feed them several times a day and usually do partial water changes once a week but sometimes it's longer.

Also, how young can the fry get pregnant? I have not separated them- I don't care about that really- and the 2 biggest ones (females) have pretty dark gravid spots and seem kinda fat. I couldn't imagine them having babies already though. I know they can get inseminated very young... but how young can actually give birth? Thanks!

What are these fish?

I saw these fish in a petshop. They looked like mini clownfish but a blacker and they were in a normal fishtank. They didn't need that special anenome stuff that clownfish have.
