Angel Fish - White stringy poo?

Post by lilacamy931 on Sun Dec 20, 2009 2:40 pm

I seem to be having an epidemic with my tanks honestly. Our angel has been a bit hidden today which is unlike him so just gently ushed him out the corner, he has a long length of stringy white poop coming out of him, presuming internal parasites? He is in the community with all the cories, glass cats, tetras and lamps so thinking of medicating entire tank?? Cant remember what is need to treat these buggers (off to health section)

We have just found a nitrAte spike so done a 50% water change, Angel seems happier already. not sure on plan of action from here though!

Oh you are having a rough time lately. So sorry hun. White stringy poo is usually a sign of internal bacterial infection unless you think it looks more worm like.

That's great news....hopefully that will sort things out. Can't help with the wormer though cos we've never had to use it.

Good luck and hope you get things sorted out Very Happy
