I don't see a realy problem doing this, although curiosity makes me
ask why!

The problem that I do see is that the canister filter will go
anaerobic during the night eating up all the oxygen in the water in
that filter. This can cause loss of nitrifying bacteria as well as
fluctuations in pH due to the O2 loss.

Just the noise, a little annoying.
