I want to bore a 1 1/2'' x 5'' cave into my driftwood, for 1 or 2 bristlenoses. Does the cave need to be open on both ends ?

I would say open at one end only if you intend it to be a breeding cave, if it's just a hide then both ends would be ok

I agree, your male will not be able to defend his cave correctly if its open at both ends.....
