I saw similar issue few days ago so I treated all fish with metro through water plus food and prazi in water. Today I saw much whiter and lengthy white poop. Thinking about trying levamisole. Fish are eating fine and look healthy.

I would try pellets soaked in metro and epsom salt, or if you can find nls hex shield. I've had good luck with both. It's alot easier to get meds in them if they're still eating.
