just a strange observation

I have an awesome gunmetal grey angelfish, it's about 3 inches high, so it has a lot to grow, (I keep him ina 29gal)

has anyone ever noticed their fish swimming backwards and trying to eat a long turd?

I notice everytime my angel takes a crap, when it get's long enough it tries to swim backwards to catch it in it's mouth, hilarious as hell*laughingc

the only time i've seen my fish swim backwards is my male guppy...when he's trying to impress the females.

.. never seen a fish intentionally go out of their way for poop.
One of my angels that had a permanently (genetic?) ripped dorsal fin to the base liked to swim on his tail a lot tho, well that is when I had an airstone on in the tank, he'd sit below the water surface and follow around the little bubbles on the surface.. on his tail. Like he wanted to eat the things or something.

One time my goldfish Bert was using the bathroom and Goldie was following him around trying to eat it. Sick I know. He must've thought it was food or something. It did happen to be by far the biggest fish turd I have ever seen in my life.

My pleco has a little log where hes always hiding and sometimes when hep poops it stretches across my whole tank(10gallon).

I swear my pl*c uses the plants as toilet paper.
