Long, white craps.

[LayzorBeams]

My male Festae has been pooping out long (2"+) pieces of white poo. Its white, not clear. Just noticed today, but i wouldn't think it has been happening for more than a couple days.

Should i raise the temp? Or could this be a water quality thing? More WC? Am i feeding them too much? (2-4 times a day, they eAt the food in 1-2 mins. Consists of various cichlid pellets, and sticks as well as freeze dried krill and shrimp pellets)

Warm clean water is highly recommended.

Could be flagellates or Heximita?
Could be something or nothing else??
I would bump up water quality first to see if any improvement is noted.
If not maybe this chart will help?

Hope this helps.

Aight. Will so double amounts of WC this month and next.

I assume part if it is his condition from the LFS. He had pretty bad HILLE. He is getting better but i think it could be a side-affect of the crappy conditions he was in.
