Stringy poop in mbuna

[GreenCircleGirl]

This is the second week that I’ve had my mbuna. They are about 2” and look very healthy with great appetites. At least half of them have dark, long, strings of poop. I’m feeding either Sera veggie flakes or Bug Bites spirulina flakes in the morning and Solient Green by Rapashy or spectrum algae discs in the evening with fresh cucumbers a couple times per week. Is the poops a positive thing like their GI tract is cleaning out or negative? Am I feeding too much?

Try Expel-P, in case it's a parasite.

Stringy poop doesn't mean always mean parasites sometimes it the mucus covering your seeing if they eating ok none have sunken bellys or are losing weight and no rapid breathing hanging near the surface I wouldn't treat them I would monitor for now
