Hey, so I of course have heard that EBJD are prone to parasites and when I was looking closely at my EBJD today I noticed what might be white poop (its not like bright white, but it is definitely not a dark color poop). I heard that is a sign of parasites. Looking at the video, whats your opinion? If you think its a parasite what way would you go about curing it? I have a UV filter but I got a feeling this will need a more direct approach. Thanks for your imput! (ps sorry for the music in the video my comp was playing it when I was recording lol :) )

Looks to me like a parasite problem, and you can't take a chance with ebjds, so I'd suggest you treat it as a parasite problem. Assume Hexameta and treat with metro (metronidozole). Jungle Parasite Clear is a good choice. I'd suggest you go to:

And do some reading as to the proper procedure to follow.
