New clowns -parasite?

[jonbark]

Just got two clowns from a reputable LFS in the are. Eating and doing well for 3 days. But today while feeding noticed a white stringy handing off. From reading the forums here, possible internal parasite?

Also read about prazipro or dosing their food.Right now they are the only fish in the tank.

Recommendation for treatment please if I can treat in tank or need to set up a qt tank.

Same thing with my clown had stringy white poops seemed to be stress from shipping cause one week of treated pellets and he's a brown pooper now.

Curious what others say

I would feed Focus+GC ( General Cure) mixed in with your food to help fight internal parasites. White stringy poop is a definite yes to internal issues.

Thank you. Going to store to get some focus and metroplex.

Most likely this is from being under fed. 9 times out of 10 it isn’t a parasite. White stringy poop can be indicative of either parasite or under fed. Feed and observe for a week. If it makes you feel better you can add focus to their food.

If you can get GC this is even better as the medication has Metro+Prazi. Once this hits the gut it will definitely help with internal issues!

Thank you all. Fed some frozen mysis shrimp tonight and they went nuts. Lol.
