Feces clear at times

[phalough]

I have noticed on some of my discus that at times they seem to have clear feces. I can only think this may be caused by the mysis shrimp, and sometimes when feeding them frozen bloodworms for example some of them are not dark and red as they should all be but rather clear pieces are also frozen in the cube. I'ts super white and stringy as with hex, or worms. But just wanted to ask if anyone also has had this problem. Sometimes it's clear pieces attached to dark pieces of poop. They all seem fine and eat pretty well.

Yes.. sometimes when they have bloodworms and shrimp.. the casings to the worms and shrimp are not digested and will come out in the feces. Its not really anything to worry about as far as I know. I see it on my fish too after bloodworms.
