Aquarium Advice Addict
I've been noticing half of my fish are showing stringy poop in all colours: brown - dark brown - white - clear.
Usually my approach is large water changes and high quality food, but that has not solved the issue. I blanched some peas and have started feeding them that, any other household foods to try?
If not, I'm open to some meds. Which medicated foods would work? Or which meds would work? thanks.
Fish are:
Dwarf neon rainbows, apistos, dwarf gouramis, CPD's threadfin rainbows + amano shrimp and neocaridina shrimp are in the tank.
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
NO3 - 20-40 (high tech planted tank, dosing to these levels)
pH - 7.6 dropping to 6.6 with CO2
kH - 4
gH - 8
TDS - 250ppm
Temp - 78
60% weekly water change, feeding NLS flake and Omega micro pellets, very rarely I will feed some frozen blood worms (haven't for 2+ months now though).
