    Hi all I have a question about my angels.

    Last night I came home and noticed something really strange with my angel's "poop" it was white and almost "fluffy" not like always and I feed them Tetra Prima Discus granules. One of my kribs also had it once before

    Here is some photo's, please can anyone tell me do I need to worry or not?
    Sorry for the poor quality photo's

    Internal parasite, worms, now you just need to find out what kind of worm as not all deworming meds are effective on all worms

    What I have noticed is that they are not eating and are constantly hiding and that their fins are clamped together

    Do you think it will pass the reason for asking is that the krib had it a while back and now he seems to be okay
    O and one more question will my other fish get it

    Hi all

    Sorry guys I know this is a old thread but i need to "bump" it.

    My angels got the same problem again and I did read through the thread but their was no real answer on the problem and I can't find the pm Dolphin sent me so please can someone tell what i can use or do to solve this. They get Tetra Prima Discus granules and Tetra Flakes but I stopped feeding blood worms a long time ago.

    So please any advise will be grateful

    could be constipation too. that causes long stringy poop. it really is not adequate to just feed granules or flakes, you have to supplement with other live or frozen foods such as bloodworm, daphnia, brine shrimp.
