    Fish that eats fish poop are scavengers.

    Yes.

    This thing should be an unavoidable situation. But if it is a breeding situation, then try to keep it clean and in place, and don't let it eat by itself. Eating it regularly should reduce the physical fitness of the fish.

    The feces contain a large number of parasites and pathogenic bacteria, which cannot be directly poured into the pond for use, and before use, it needs to be fermented to kill parasites and pathogenic bacteria, and decompose the macromolecular proteins in the feces into small molecule proteins and nutrients that can be easily utilized.

    Fish sometimes eat feces, but when swallowed, they spit it out and do not swallow it. Fish do not have a strong way to distinguish food, and can only judge whether it fits their mouth by swallowing it, so they occasionally swallow feces, but they will spit it out if they don't fit their mouth. If there is a lot of feces in the fish tank, it is necessary to strengthen filtration, or when changing the water, the water from the bottom is pumped out along with the feces.

    Usually you should reduce feeding, so that there is less excretion.

    Fish feces in the tank are mainly cleaned by a filtration system. Filtration is divided into two parts, one is physical filtration, which will suck the dirt in the water away from the suction port. The other part is biological filtration, in which the various beneficial bacteria living in the filter media will break down the fish feces and turn it into a harmless substance after multiple transformations.
