My new electric blue eats like a pig(as stated by subject) but it still excretes white stringy waste. What should i do?

Feed some medicated anti-parasitic food. Could possibly be parasites.

Yeah it sounds like it may have intestinal worms or somethin like that 8O

Once a parasite has invaded the body, it eats the nutrients the fish eats. So the fish keeps eating and eating, but the parasite gets it all.
