I have a discus that is showing abnormal signs of fins clamped against his body, stress bars showing, but his appetite is normal. He faces the back of the tank often and rarely schools with the other fish. The water parameters are normal. 0 nitrates 0 nitrite 150 ppm hardness, 130ish Alkalinity, 7.8 ph.
Just curious what could be causing this behavior. I haven't yet seen his feces.

Alright I also am having another problem. I had two adults I thought were pairing up so I moved them to a 30 gallon to see what would come of it. Now I see whiteish stringy poo trailing behind one. I'm pretty sure that's a sign of Hex. But wanted to make sure. The other I noticed today has a mark on his side that wasn't there yesterday. Water Para are the same as above tank.
