This may mean that you are over feeding your fish and they cannot finish what you have put in the tank; reduce the amount of food you give each feeding, and make sure you clean the tank regularly

Is a focal point in reference to fish feeding the location that the fish actually get food or its waiting location or something else?

If the fish is a bottom feeder (catfish, plecos), the fish will search the bottom of the tank for food and possibly below the surface and will generally dwell on the bottom of the tank. If the fish is a top feeder (african butterfly fish), it will search the upper reaches of the water and possibly above the surface and will generally live in this area as well. Open water fish (tetras, rainbows) will generally live in the middle waters of the tank, but will search for food at all levels. A frightened fish will go just about anywhere as will a hiding or stressed fish.
