It sounds almost like your feeding him really late in the evening. . . what kind of light cycle are you running? 12-14 hours i believe it is?
I run mine off of timers that come on at 8am, and turn off at 9pm. I feed them once in the morning, and once in the early afternoon, then i leave some PW's in the tank for them to snack on if need be. I only do this last part because i have class later at night when i used to feed them.
But lights go on at 8am, i feed them around 10am, let them sit around till about 1130-12 and give them a bath or whatever need be. Then they get a second feeding around 2-3 depending on what time i have to leave for class.
when i'm not in school, they usually get fed around 11, 2nd at around 5
i try to keep the feedings in the middle of their day, so their hungry when they wake up.
personally my beardie gets really really lazy after 8, and from what ive read you aren't supposed to feed them with less then 2-3 hours of light left. They need to properly digest their food.
