Hi there, I have a male dwarf gourami that has white stringy feces. I did some reading and I saw those were symptoms of hole-in-the-head, but I thought that was a primarily discus parasite? Is it possible that my gourami has it?
 
my platies had white stringy feces and i treated them with jungles antiparasite food about 3 months ago...normal feces since then and lookin' good... :D
 
HitH is just one parasite that can cause white mucusy feces. My personal battle was with camallanus. patagonia was spot on with suggesting the Jungle anti-parasite food. It worked great for me (except my pleco didn't eat it so it kept recurring, but that is a story for another post).
