    Question Is this considered stringy poop?

    Hi,

    Today I found this stringy poop attached to one of my CKB.

    Is this a sign of some kind of sickness/parasites?
    (I've seen hex before so I know it's kinda different poop than hex.)

    My water parameters are: NH3 0/NO2 0/NO3 20-30 (yup a bit high)
    30-31c

    The fish itself does not show other signs of sickness,
    (fins not clamped, still eats like a pig, doesn't hide in corner, show no color change)

    Their main foods are: Tetra bits, Hikari discus, frozen artemia, frozen krill, frozen beefheart.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Cyrus

    That looks fine. Stringy poo is normally clear / cloudy in colour - mucus like
