Discus has weird symptom

[Discusfanatic_1]

Hi,

I just noticed that there is something coming out of my Discus's anus, for lack of better word. I'm not sure what it is but it is not eating like it usually is. The other discus in the tank are normal and eating. I don't know what's wrong with this one. I was assuming it's intestinal parasite.

Any idea?

Thanks!

Yeah, whats it look like? Is it white? If its a deep red, could be callamunus worms.

The feces is black and now it seems normal, eating okay, but it has clamped fins. I still don't know what's going on with it.

Thanks.

Uh.....okay, black coming from the anus. Fish do actually excrete feces and it can be different colors. LOL

Hey guys sorry for the late late response, I have been busy with school.

The discus seem to be doing fine after a few days although he is not the same as before. He still showed sign of clamped fins at time.
