attack of the poop eaters?

[KATALEKEEPER]

Most important for tangs is high ph, like high 8s low 9s if I’m correct.

yup! I cant wait to get my tropheus!

Yes, it does. But it refers to human feces and was never confirmed in any diet studies. In nature Scatophagus normally feeds on insects, crustaceans, worms and plants.

Just imagine if scats really lived up their name and that was actually all that they ate....I can just see it now,specialized food for scats,containers of human poop flakes on the store shelves.....right next to the New Life Spectrum and Bug Bites!

Same could be said for our native Black and White Crappie.

I believe one of the labeobarbus species eats hippo poo.

In Africa, some food chains are powered by hippo poop

There are many impressive things about hippos ... and their poop is one of them. A new study confirms just how much smaller animals like fish rely on the faecal feast hippos deposit in Africa's rivers each year.

Lol well I was going along the lines of "you are what you eat" scat=scat crappie=crappy. Ik the name is pronounced more like "craw pea" but it's spelt like it should come out as "crap py".
