Clownfish not eating and has stringy poop

[Hud]

I recently got a clownfish on Sunday. He’s in a 20 gallon quarantine tank with copper(cupramine). And I have not seen him eat and he has stringy poop. He also goes to the top of the tank and sometimes swims vertically with his but up. Is this an internal parasite? He doesn’t look bad. Or is it swim bladder? What should I do there are 3 other fish in the quarantine tank?

if its white stringy poo then it's internal parasite. Here's a thorough thread discussing all internal issues

Thank you I appreciate it I think it’s swim bladder so I put some epsom salt in the qt and I will see if that helps if not I will get some prazipro
