Stringy white/clear poop

[saiyachick]

Hi,

For the past two days my flame gourami has been acting lethargic, not eating as much (he used to come right up when I fed him now he stays in a corner) and he is pooping very long, white/clear stringy poop that stays attached to him for a long time. He looks a bit bloated. All the other fish in the tank are fine, acting and looking normal.

And suggestions on what I should do?

Thanks!

If you have a QT or hospital tank, I would put him in it. White poop could be as sign of some sort of bacterial infection or parasite. Hard to know but better safe than sorry.
