Do Fish Poo More At Night?

[jonny]

Guys,

Since i have put sand in my new tank i have noticed i can go to bed with clean sand and wake up to a poo fest!

Do fish poo more at night?

If i clean the sand in the morning it stays clean all day but during the night it gets filthy!

am i being silly?

do you have plecs? plecs are usually nocturnal and poo machines, that may explain the poo
