Cichlid Frontosa Eating feces .....

Hi All,

Need some assistance if possible, i have 2 Frontosa's but not to big ...2 - 3 inches but one of them since the start of the week just keeps collecting feces and storing it in its mouth .....any idea why as i cant see anything on the internet ....

Thanks
Ray .

its very odd as i caught him and managed to get a lot out then after a couple of days he/she was doing the same thing ... i feed them 2 - 3 times a day so defiantly not a lack of food and they are not getting bullied at all either ...i got the below clip of my tank all fish seem absolutely fine and he does come into shot (black and white striped ) but cant see the mouth full of crap!
can only monitor them to see how they go ...
