Fish that eat poo?

LOL
this is a really disguisting topic, strangely enough... its interesting though.

Ok, kinda childish but some parts made me laugh hysterically.

Don't worry, I have a yellow and blue hippo tang that everytime they "poo lol" they eat it right up again at least 5 more times.

If a fish did eat the poo of all the other fish, wouldn't there in turn be a little less poo? It couldn't possibly create more poo than it eats......or could it?

It 'output' would be less than its total intake (including food), but more processed than the fæces it took in.

There is a type of fish called a Scat that possibly eats poo. It is a brackish fish that is reputed to eat poo however it has been argued that they only digest the parasites that live on the poo in the wild.
