Clown fish excrete long white stringy stuff


Recommended Posts

  • SRC Member

I seem to have difficulty keeping clown fish. Usually they are doing fine for a few days looking healthy and eating well. Then suddenly they stopped eating and noticed they started passing out long white string from anus. They started to look unwell and die. No white spots or velvet. Any bro can advise? Thanks in advance.

There are 2 reasons why they have long white feces:

  • Poor adjustment, acclimating or shipping - Entice the fish to feed with quality food and it will recover
  • Internal parasites - Can be due to protozoan or worms, remove into separate QT tank for treatment (anti-protozoal and deworming medications). Or you can try Garlic soaked food first to see whether condition improves before medications
