I have 2 female guppies and 1 male platy. They all have a parasite (idk which one) and all is pooping out clear white stringy poop. I tried treating peas but turns out that only works for constipated fish which i realized ii have parasites in my tank.
After the treatment, i'm gonna add a gourami in the tank.
water conditions=fine and 10g tank.
There are no shrimp, crabs, snails, etc in the tank.
So my questions are:
-is parasites contagious?
-which parasite cure is better?
This one:Anti-Bacteria Medicated Fish Food - Medications - Fish - PetSmart
Or this one:Tetra™ Parasite Guard® - Parasite Medications - Medications - PetSmart
~If i was to use the tablets, should i feed the fish at the same time? (flakes) or should i keep on giving peas?
~and will i keep on using the tablets until the white clear poop goes away, and after it goes away, should i use it for 1 more day to COMPLETLEY eliminate the parasite or for 3 more days?
-Will i have to feed the food pellets medication only until the parasite goes away?
Thank you
