White Stingy Poop

What is it and how do I treat it? I really don't have the money to spend 40 bucks on medicated food online :/

That's not a good sign white stringy poop can mean either constipation, internal parasites, it's hard to tell, my fish have gotten it but I assume it is constipation, I would keep a close eye on it

Okay, I'll try feeding peas. If it doesn't do anything, is it safe to assume it's a parasite? And feed anti protozoan food?

I would wait a week and if it doesn't go away I would start treating parasite

A week without feeding??? Or feeding straight peas?

I could do three days without feeding but I wouldn't dare do any longer than that.
